Repairing and Maintaining Print Materials

LTLS
Thursday, December 3, 2009, 1 – 3:30pm

John Ison, from DEMCO, presents a practical, hands-on seminar where participants learn and practice basic repairs for both hard and softbound books. Emphasis is placed on becoming familiar with techniques and materials for economical in-house repair of materials that must be available for frequent use. Additionally, protective measures that extend the life of new materials will be demonstrated and discussed. Long-term preservation of archival materials is not addressed. Participants should bring one or two discarded hardback books to practice on.
