    47(2) LRTS 59 The Preservation Evolution A Review of Preservation Literature, 1999–2001 JeanAnn Croft The literature representing 1999 to 2001 reveals that the preservation field is absorbed in an evolution. The literature demonstrates that trusted practices are changing to improve outcomes and further advance the preservation field. Simultaneously, in the wake of the digital revolution, preservation professionals dream about merging traditional and digital technologies in the hope that both long-term preservation and enhanced access will be achieved. This article attempts to relate the values of the discipline in order to inspire further research and persuade more work in formulating hypotheses to integrate preservation the- ory and practice. Finally, this overview of the literature will communicate the scope of the preservation problem, clarify misconceptions in the field, and docu- ment areas that warrant further investigation and refinement. he literature representing 1999 to 2001 reveals that the preservation field is Tcontinually absorbed in an evolution.

Mellon Foundation Columbia University Libraries received an award of $27,500 in April 2008 from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to support a survey and report of the need for the deacidification of newly acquired print volumes in major research libraries. The study group included members from CUR, NYU, Yale, and the Mellon Foundation. In March 2009, the Mellon Foundation approved a no-cost extension through July 31, 2009 to host the originally scheduled March planning meeting in April and to allow additional time for the university's account department to process and pay all expenses charged to the grant. The result is the attached report, Mass Deacidifcation: The Needfor a National Program. The principal investigator, Jim Neal, and Columbia's Offce of the Controller worked together to complete the Financial Report, which was signed and submitted directly from the Office of the Controller. As indicated in the Financial Report, this grant was underspent by $6,647 (including interest income of $198), primarily due to significant savings in travel costs. A check in the amount of $6,647 wil be refunded to the Mellon Foundation.

  • CONNECTING to COLLECTIONS PENNSYLVANIA a Five-Year Preservation Plan for Pennsylvania PROJECT OVERVIEW
    CONNECTING TO COLLECTIONS PENNSYLVANIA a five-year preservation plan for Pennsylvania PROJECT OVERVIEW Imagining Our Future: Preserving Pennsylvania’s Collections, published in August 2009, includes an in-depth analysis of conditions and needs at Pennsylvania’s collecting institutions, a detailed preservation plan to improve collections care throughout the state, and a five-year implementation timetable (2010-2015). The analysis concludes that many of Pennsylvania’s most important historic holdings must be considered at risk. Millions of items comprise these collections, and the financial resources available to care for them are limited and shrinking. Pennsylvania is a state vibrant with world-class art museums, libraries, historic sites. Arts and culture play a substantial role in creating business, jobs, and bringing revenue into the state and stewardship of its artifacts is too important —to the state, to the people, to the history of country—to be ignored. This call to action is a rallying cry for all future generations of Pennsylvanians. With generous support from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, and in close partnership with three leading preservation organizations, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC), the Pennsylvania Federation of Museums and Historical Organizations (PFMHO), and LYRASIS, the Conservation Center for Arts & Historic Artifacts organized and led the assessment and planning process. The project was capably guided by a Task Force with representatives from the Office of (PA) Commonwealth Libraries, the Western Pennsylvania Museum Council, the Pennsylvania Caucus of the Mid- Atlantic Regional Archives Conference, Pennsylvania State University, the Philadelphia Area Consortium of Special Collections Libraries, the University of Pittsburgh, and Carnegie Mellon University.

  • Preservation in the Digital Age a Review of Preservation Literature, 2009–10
    56(1) LRTS 25 Preservation in the Digital Age A Review of Preservation Literature, 2009–10 Karen F. Gracy and Miriam B. Kahn This paper surveys research and professional literature on preservation-related topics published in 2009 and 2010, identifies key contributions to the field in peri- odicals, monographs, and research reports, and provides a guide to the changing landscape of preservation in the digital age. The authors have organized the reviewed literature into five major areas of interest: tensions in preservation work as libraries embrace digital resources, mass digitization and its effects on collec- tions, risk management and disaster response, digital preservation and curation, and education for preservation in the digital age. his review article critically examines the literature of preservation published T during a two-year period, 2009–10. Almost a decade has passed since the last review of the preservation literature appeared in Library Resources and Technical Services, covering the period of 1999–2001.1 In the interim, the evolu- tion of the preservation field noted by Croft has accelerated, encompassing whole areas of practice that were in their infancy at the turn of the twenty-first century. In her review, Croft identified ten areas of emphasis in the literature: clarifying preservation misconceptions triggered by the publication of Nicholson Baker’s Double Fold; the continued importance of the artifact in the wake of new digital reformatting technologies; remote storage; mass deacidification; physical treat- ment

  • Brittle Paper
    2/2/2016 preservationhistory ­ Brittle Paper Brittle Paper (/Brittle+Paper) Edit 0 (/Brittle+Paper#discussion) 11 (/page/history/Brittle+Paper) … (/page/menu/Brittle+Paper) Brittle Books, Bad Paper The “brittle book” phenomenon has been one of the main preoccupations of preservationists and conservationists since the 1930s, but it has roots far deeper. Resulting from changes in papermaking that developed in the modern era, papers containing the (acidic) cause of their own early demise worried librarians and book lovers alike. Many of the preservation trends of the 20th century have emerged in response to the “inherent vice” of papers produced from the 1850s through the 1950s Why this paper crisis developed and how the library community has attempted to deal with the consequences of acidic paper is the subject of this section. Papermaking and the Creation of Acidic Paper In order to understand why brittle paper became such an issue of concern to preservationists, it is essential to learn a few basics about the papermaking process and how it has changed over time. Certain kinds of paper do not present serious or specific conservation issues because the processes used to produce them have created a relatively stable paper. The major concerns of preservation­minded librarians developed out of paper produced beginning in the 1850s (approximately), which were created using chemicals and processes that contain the seeds of embrittlement and can greatly shorten the life of documents printed on them. The cellulose content of paper and the chemicals used to process it have much to do with how well the paper ages and how long it remains in good, usable condition.

  • Mass Deacidification: a Preservation Option for Libraries
    World Library and Information Congress: 69th IFLA General Conference and Council 1-9 August 2003, Berlin Code Number: 030-E Meeting: 100. Preservation and Conservation Simultaneous Interpretation: - Mass Deacidification: a Preservation Option for Libraries Roberta Pilette Yale University Libraries Yale University New Haven, USA Abstract: The library and archive worlds are inundated with acidic paper. Institutions have been trying to ensure the long-term preservation of items on acidic paper for years. Now there are dependable, effective, reasonably priced commercial vendors that can neutralize the acids without time consuming and limiting selection criteria. But how to chose where to start and what to send? This paper outlines the physical selection criteria being used by most institutions in the United States sending materials to a commercial vendor for mass deacidification. Discusses different approaches in how to select where to start deacidifying in a large collection and what other workflow issues must be considered when including mass deacidification as another preservation tool in preserving our cultural heritages. The library and archive worlds are inundated with acidic paper. While it is true that many areas of the world have made great strides in producing alkaline paper, there are still many other areas that are producing paper that would not be considered a good choice for permanence. Ultimately this acidic paper becomes brittle and unusable. Unfortunately this acidic paper has been and is used in a wide variety of materials that libraries have acquired in the past, are still acquiring, and will continue to acquire into the future. All acidic papers do not become brittle at the same rate, but it is know that even the most flexible and whitest of these papers left in an acidic state will deteriorate and become brittle.

Abstract: Deacidification plays an important role in the conservation of paper-based cultural heritage objects. Herein, a novel approach for the conservation of scale paper-based cultural heritage objects is proposed using a mixture of argon and ethylene oxide (EO-Ar) for the first time. The optimum process conditions for deacidification of ethylene oxide and argon mixture system are determined by orthogonal testing. To evaluate the stabilization effect of paper treated with EO-Ar, the degradation of the mechanical properties (tensile strength, folding endurance and tearing strength tests) of paper after artificial aging was evaluated. The results show that the treated paper had better durability with respect to tensile strength, folding endurance and tearing strength. Additionally, thermal Citation: Qi, Y.; Jia, Z.; Zhou, Y.; stability, crystallinity and fiber wall thickness increased after EO-Ar treated, which was determined Wang, Y.; Zhao, G.; Chao, X.; Xing, H.; by scanning electron microscope (SEM), diffraction of X-rays (XRD), and thermo gravimetric (TG) Li, Y.
