Our Past Preserved


Book Description

Higginbotham traces the development of such techniques as care and handling of library materials; pest control; repair and binding; emergency planning; and temperature control, lighting, and other environmental safeguards. While her primary focus is books, she also looks at pamphlets, periodicals, and maps, as well as the influence of rare book and manuscript handling on preservation techniques.
