I think that the best way is to clean, scan and catalogue them, on a computer!! There are lots of packages out there. This way they are airtight, waterproof etc. Store them on Archival CD's, they last 100 years so should be good enough for future generations........ we live in hope!

It'll be a mammoth task but so worth it i believe! Good luck with the task.
