We are in the process of having a cement wash put on the ceiling and
walls of our library. (Our esthetics committee ruled against
painting) This is a very wet and messy process. Conservation has raised
concerns of the increased humidity level and the threat of water damage to
the book collection. We are considering a book moving service to
temporarily relocate the books. Has anyone
1.) had experience with any book moving services
2.) had this type of wash done to your walls
Thanks
