However, issues related to exposure of toxic materials are not just related to new innovations; health and safety information is incomplete for most of the materials already used in collection care. Many topics covered in this article apply to any chemical/material to which museum personnel may be exposed. The discussion is divided into three parts: (1) an explanation of why museum workers, particularly conservators, are a unique exposure population when it comes to health and safety concerns; (2) a specific chemical case study (cyclododecane) describing how to approach materials with limited safety information; and (3) practical protocols to protect workers and the public. To gain a better understanding of how to approach these challenges, a summary of related literature, interviews, and survey responses on this topic are provided.","PeriodicalId":80959,"journal":{"name":"Collections : the newsletter of the Archives and Special Collections on Women in Medicine, the Medical College of Pennsylvania","volume":"19 1","pages":"137 - 158"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82393736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These collections house more than 233,000 unique Arctic specimens, the oldest dating back more than two centuries. The vascular plants account for 63 percent, lichens 30 percent, and fungi 7 percent. The Arctic collections have a circumpolar representation with emphasis on mainland Norway (48 percent) and Svalbard (13 percent), followed by Arctic America (10 percent), Greenland (9 percent), and Arctic Russia (8 percent). The Oslo herbarium and fungarium house collections from important polar expeditions like Fram-2, Gjøa, and Maud, but also of many expeditions where collecting biological specimens was the main purpose. The number of new collections was highest in the decades 1930 to 1939 and 2000 to 2009 with each around 35,000 new specimens. In the 1990s, a DNA Bank was established for DNA extracts and tissue samples, and it houses today 22,879 Arctic accessions of fungi, lichens, and plants. In times of climatic change and a tense geopolitical situation, the herbarium and fungarium at NHM-Oslo represent an invaluable source for biological information about the Arctic. We welcome the use of our collections for research-, nature management-, and teaching purposes.","PeriodicalId":80959,"journal":{"name":"Collections : the newsletter of the Archives and Special Collections on Women in Medicine, the Medical College of Pennsylvania","volume":"220 1","pages":"293 - 309"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76558206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The NHMW-material was mainly acquired during four expeditions. The first was an Isbjørn expedition designed as a test cruise by Julius Payer and Carl Weyprecht in 1871. One year later, there was a second Isbjørn expedition under the command of Count Johann Wilczek. In 1873, Richard von Drasche, an industrial magnate with geological expertise, organized a private trip to eastern Spitzbergen (Svalbard). The fourth one was from 1872 to 1874, when Payer and Weyprecht led the Austro-Hungarian North Pole Expedition on the ship Admiral Tegetthoff. The latter, which almost ended in a catastrophe, discovered Franz-Josef-Land. After these expeditions, Austria took part in the First International Polar Year (1882–1883), with its own research station at Jan Mayen. There are numerous types provided by these expeditions that make this collection and its archival material an important source for the geological history of the Arctic region.","PeriodicalId":80959,"journal":{"name":"Collections : the newsletter of the Archives and Special Collections on Women in Medicine, the Medical College of Pennsylvania","volume":"3 1","pages":"495 - 512"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74329741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They have proved useful in many research projects by adding important data, or by being the sole basis for these projects. The collections are well curated and most parts of them are registered in computer databases. Museum collections like those at the NHMO help to document the evolution of organismal groups in the (present-day) Arctic, and the palaeoecological and palaeoclimatological conditions they lived under. They are a resource for science by keeping records of fossils and rocks from remote locations, some of them with restricted access today (e.g., Novaya Zemlya, Russia). Not least they also document the history of scientific exploration and collecting culture over time. The history of exploration and appropriation of land in the Arctic, where many areas were considered to be “no man’s land” until the early twentieth century, is reflected in the collections, as is the building of a national Norwegian identity through polar expeditions in the late nineteenth century and the early twentieth century.","PeriodicalId":80959,"journal":{"name":"Collections : the newsletter of the Archives and Special Collections on Women in Medicine, the Medical College of Pennsylvania","volume":"2016 1","pages":"420 - 441"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87769161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A continuous high stress environment, anxiety from overwork in an uncertain situation, and inability to detach or rest can lead to behavioral health issues. Response to pressure can lead to taking shortcuts or non-compliance with personal safety and lead to further harm to collections. Any of these reactions can be overwhelming and can lead to further neglect of health, safety, and security on the work site, in a demotivating spiral that can affect recovery and successful outcomes for all concerned. This paper covers concepts such as the psychosocial Phases of Disaster, terms used to identify experiences, validate emotional responses, and for incorporating behavioral mental health into collections emergencies training and operations. Case studies and resources for managing mental health including skills and tools to recognize the early signs of stress, encourage communication, avoid or handle triggers, and defuse situations, to help mitigate these problems and lay a foundation for positive outcomes are provided.","PeriodicalId":80959,"journal":{"name":"Collections : the newsletter of the Archives and Special Collections on Women in Medicine, the Medical College of Pennsylvania","volume":"42 1","pages":"173 - 188"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75718352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
