Give Me More Money!
Millions of rare artifacts in museums and libraries across the United States are slowly disintegrating because of improper storage, according to a survey said to be the largest-ever look at the condition of such collections....Can a request for federal dollars be far behind? Which begs the question, can my wife and I get a tax break for storing some of our collections?
..."It's hard to raise money for something as boring as storage, but it?s important, so we've got to do it," said Kristen Overbeck Laise, who directed the project.
