    About this ebook

    Conservation of Library and Archive Materials and the Graphic Arts is the proceeding of the Cambridge 1980 International Conference on the Conservation of Library and Archive Materials and the Graphic Arts. This symposium explores the advancements in the field of conservation of historic and artistic works. The book covers related topics such as the employment of different methods for the preservation of paper such as bleaching and alkaline buffering; the repair, relaxation, binding, handling, and display of articles made of vellum and parchment; and the conservation of books and binders. The text is recommended for archivists, librarians, and museum curators who are interested in the scientific advances in the field of conservation and how it can help them in their profession.
