  Subject: Questions on slide rental and mat board


  Does anyone know where I can rent/borrow/check-out slides on 19th and 20th century art? I am teaching a community course this winter in Dublin, Ohio (near Columbus), and my personal slide library is very slim. 

  Also, I work as a designer/conservationist at a gallery/frame shop...I haven't been there very long, and I had a client yesterday (claiming to be a once conservationist from Chicago) tell me that even acid-free mat board will off-gas if they are colored...is this true? 

  I thank you for any information you can give me. I really appreciate it!
