About

The mission of the Northeast Museum Services Center (NMSC) is to support and strengthen park management, partnerships and programs that preserve and protect natural and cultural resource collections within Northeast Region sites of the National Park Service and make those collections accessible for research, education and public enjoyment.

The NMSC Archeological Collections Management team assists parks with the processing, cataloging and rehousing of archeological collections. 

Through this blog, we will share with you the work we do, including:

  • Behind-the-Scenes, where you will get an inside look at what we do
  • Name that Artifact, where we will post photos of objects we need help identifying
  • A bit of History, where we will share our research findings
  • Spotlight On…, where we will highlight individual artifacts/museum objects
