Project Overview
A historical museum in HK contains a lots of valuable aging documents in its library for public. Everyone has right to borrow them from the library. The museum reported that those documents only have physical identifier, such as stamp and words, to bookmark the items. The staff needed to input manually for the borrowing progress and it was a time-consuming task for recording. Million Tech helps to implement the revamp of mapping and assigning ID to more than millions historical documents.

Challenge
The museum stores over millions historical documents, consist of different types of Journals and Collections with various paper texture. These documents are priceless asset that is required that cannot be damaged when implementing the revamp, therefore, we must select the label materials carefully (especially the glue & adhesive).
Solution
Million Tech selected a dedicated label design to the customer. The label material is durable enough that long lasting for few ten years, featuring anti-tearing, dust-proof for easy manage. For the glue and adhesive, Million Tech chose chemical resistant to avoid damaging to historical documents. There are 2 layers label (replaceable facestock is placed on the top for replaceable is label is damaged in order to avoid hurt the surface of the historical documents) for extending the label life without damaging the documents.
Result/ Feedback
Million Tech successfully implemented Phrase 1 of revamp that around 95,000pcs historical documents were assigned new identifiers and dedicated labels on the documents. Extra labor is trained and offered to map and stick the label in order to facilitate the project on-time and accurate the progress, and final the in/out record can be done systematically by barcode readers. And no damage report using the dedicated label of the asset is found for the revamp process.
