Museum level conservation refers to the comprehensive and professional care of cultural and historical artifacts, artworks, and specimens within a museum or gallery setting. This specialized form of conservation encompasses a range of disciplines, including art conservation, collections management, preventive conservation, and scientific research.

Conservators undertake meticulous examination, documentation, and analysis of objects to understand their condition, material composition, and historical context. They devise tailored preservation strategies to mitigate deterioration and prevent damage, such as controlling environmental factors like temperature, humidity, and lighting.
