Museum quality
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Museum quality is used to describe the quality level with regard to printing, for example. For example, with some inkjet printers, photographs and images that meet the exacting standards of museum curators can be printed by amateurs. The quality of the print also relates to its longevity. Therefore, museums require not just print quality but print longevity in order to effectively display prints in their collections. This may require the use of acid-free paper, for example.
Museum Quality refers to standards of exhibition, description and citation. Most often used in and by museums, archives, libraries, visual arts, galleries, etc. It takes into account matters associated with graphic sizing and presentation, environmental matters such as lighting, temperature and humidity controls, and security.
