Preservation and Conservation for Libraries and Archives: Reissued (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780838910054)

When materials aren't available due to deterioration, missing pages, disconnected covers, or other problems, it can be frustrating for users and librarians alike. The answer is to provide appropriate care for the collection from the outset, while also guiding staff on making needed repairs. In Preservation and Conservation for Libraries and Archives, two experts show optimal collection preservation techniques, what it takes to set up a conservation work area, and safe ways to mount a small exhibit. Illustrated, step-by-step instructions to repair and conserve books and documents are also included.
