Adrienne,

If you go to Barnes and Nobel and type in Basketry Care 2 books come up. I'm not familiar with them but they might help.

Also, remember that many baskets were treated with arsenic so please handle them with care and wear proper protective gear such as non-latex gloves. Even if your baskets weren't treated with chemicals I would still choose non-latex over cotton as the cotton gloves may snag on the baskets.
