She will talk about the different steps in evaluating damage to a book, tips on handling them, decisions to make as far as the type of repair, the budget, the options and the right people to call. Learn about what you can do yourself or techniques easy to learn, as well as what you should not do. Proper material for conservation will also be discussed.
