Dear colleagues,
DFF – Deutsches Filminstitut & Filmmuseum and Filmoteca Valenciana – IVC are partners the EU project NEMOSINE, which aims to set new standards for the preservation of audiovisual heritage by developing innovative “smart packages”.
The packages will be equipped with the latest sensor technology to monitor decomposition processes and adsorb decomposition products such as acetic acid. The focus is on films, photos and audio carriers based on cellulose. Aim of the four-year project is to achieve more efficient long-term archiving and increase the life cycle of films and other audiovisual objects. http://www.nemosineproject.eu/
To get an overview of current archival preservation conditions, could you please answer the following questions: Under what conditions do you store and preserve your collections? Which packaging / cans do you prefer? How satisfied are you with the existing solutions? What requirements do you think a “smart package” should meet?
This link will take you to the questionnaire:

https://s2survey.net/nemosine_questionnaire/

Completing the seven pages of the survey will take about one hour. You can save and pause at any time (just click on the button at the bottom of the page). Please answer the questions to the best of your knowledge. As a potential user of the innovative cans your feedback is important to us. Your answers will be treated confidentially.
Deadline is 20 March 2019. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Thank you for your support!

With kind regards,
