[BCMA] Archival supplies within Canada

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Hello Cass,

                Carr Mclean (http://carrmclean.com/) is always a good option. Gaylord suppliers can bring in any Gaylord (http://www.gaylord.com/) items from the website or catalogue but with the dollar I'm not sure if it affects their prices. I've personally ordered through Foothill Systems (https://www.foothillssystems.ca/portfolio/gaylord-archival/) for Gaylord items and never had an issue. University Products (http://www.universityproducts.com/) is another option but I find their selection and prices aren't always as good as others. Brodart (http://www.brodart.ca/archival-supplies/) has an archival supply section that I've ordered from a few times. Talas (http://www.talasonline.com/) carries a number of different things but I've only ever ordered paste and more conservation-esk items from them. There are some more specialty ones out there but these are some of the bigger, more general suppliers. Other subscribers may have more suggestions too. Depending on exactly what you are looking for, local businesses may carry some items.

                I hope this helps!

Hi all,



We're looking to order some supplies for our museum--things like envelopes, photo boxes, etc.--and the supplier in Burnaby that we used to order from is no longer in business, and the place we've ordered from in the US is really expensive.  Was wondering if there is anywhere in Canada that other museums order from.



Thanks in advance for the help!
