It's my soapbox and I'm not getting down.>>
>I am a librarian who has recently been hired to catalogue and archive a
small historical collection. The Kelley House Museum has a collection of
maps and photographs dating back to the early 1900's. Many are brittle an
d
torn. What is the current thinking on repairing historical documents with
archival document tape before encapsulating them? What are the best types
of tapes to use?
