66 HANDLING NITRATE FILM IN THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES BUILDtNG Nitrate prints are not available for reference purposes. Nor may nitrate prints be projected In tiie theater. All nitrate film sent into the building for laboratory work must be labeled with red tape. Nitrate may only be stored temporarily in the 5th floor vaults In steel trays, which must be properly closed. Since this will make keeping a large order together quite difficult it is advisable to hold nitrate in Suitland until the day the laboratory is ready to work on it, in which case the nitrate should be sent in on the morning shuttle van. The nitrate film should be returned to Suitland Inmediately upon completion of laboratory work.
