Conservation In The Library

Product information not available. Review: ?Conservation in the Library will be valuable to a variety of readers, including the librarian who wants a single compendium of practical and up-to-date information on the care and handling of materials found in the modern library, an overview of current conservation problems and practices, a reference to suppliers and organizations offering assistance, and additional bibliographic sources.

While the book's purpose is to present practical preservation information on conventional materials as well as nonprint media (which it does), each author raises questions, either implicitly or explicitly, about the future preservation needs of libraries and the role to be played by librarians in determining how these needs will be met.

Any indivudal concerned about the future of libraries can read this book with profit.?-College and Research Libraries
