Old Archival Boxes



Listserv members,
        I have records in dusty,old archival boxes on wooden shelves.  Most
of them are actually adhering to the surface of the shelves and have to be
coaxed out by stages.
        Question:  Would you say these boxes are no longer proper storage
for historical documents?  Can they be retained at all or are they
compromised entirely?
        I pretty much think they should go, but need colleague support, here
in my yet to be constructed historical documents library (just me, my
computer & empty [limited] space).

thanks,
Sharon (Do I really want to be the first County archivist, ever?)Pullen
