Several scrapbooks have been donated to our small local museum. The pages
are of a type of paper that ages rather quickly and some is beginning to
crumble. I have looked for oversized protective archival sleeves, but so far
I haven't found any that are large enough for a scrapbook page.

The clippings and letters that have been glued to the pages need to be
visible to researchers, but handling the pages is causing damage. Is there a
source for oversized clear archival sleeves? How do others make old
scrapbooks available for viewing?

Thanks!
