The Macao Historical Archives operates under the auspices of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, and is responsible for the preservation of records of historic value. Given Macao’s geographical location in a sub-tropical zone, it is essential to actively protect paper records in order to avoid deterioration and ensure their correct preservation. Such measures include regular pest control.
The next scheduled pest control in the Macao Historical Archives will take place on 29th to 31st of July. The Reading Room and Exhibition Room will be closed to the public from 2.30pm on Friday 29th July, and throughout the day on Saturday and Sunday from 30th to 31st July. It will re-open to the public on Monday 1st August.
