Many people are staying with fluorescents in storage rather than LEDs. Since storeroom lights are not on for a long time, the energy savings are not substantial. If staff work in storerooms and wants to look at collections with lighting that’s better in color, you can add a work light on the table where you work. The alternatives for UV filters are films that curl around fluorescent lamps, or inserting UV-filtering Plexiglas over the front of the whole fixture.
