Documentary works in all formats, including digital, are a key part of our cultural heritage. Working with, preserving, and safeguarding them in order to provide
access to future generations is at the core of the work of libraries globally.
… documentary works are under constant threat of destruction. There are a wide range of reasons for this - from
neglect, to destruction in conflict or natural disaster, to a lack of funding to preserve.
Libraries globally have always been at the forefront of efforts to
combat these threats by safeguarding, preserving and providing access to documentary cultural heritage.
… It is therefore crucial to involve libraries in all discussions and
actions around the preservation

Let’s start with PRESERVATION …
![Page 7: PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOPweb.nlp.gov.ph/.../files/conservation_and_preservation_workshop.pdf · PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOP Emma M. Rey, RL Society of Filipino](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022053001/5f05ba667e708231d41467dd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Basic Principles
1. Know the Collection
a. Paper – natural aging process of paper will cause it to become weak and brittle
![Page 8: PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOPweb.nlp.gov.ph/.../files/conservation_and_preservation_workshop.pdf · PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOP Emma M. Rey, RL Society of Filipino](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022053001/5f05ba667e708231d41467dd/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Basic Principles
1. Know the Collection
b. Books
designed to stand on a shelf with the support of other books of equal height and depth
they should be placed close enough to support each other but loose enough to be removed from the shelf
oversize books may be laid flat
damaged books should be placed in a box or
wrapped in acid-free wrapping paper
![Page 9: PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOPweb.nlp.gov.ph/.../files/conservation_and_preservation_workshop.pdf · PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOP Emma M. Rey, RL Society of Filipino](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022053001/5f05ba667e708231d41467dd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Basic Principles 2. Be Aware of the Forces of Destruction
a. Light
measured in units of intensity called lux;
high intensity light can induce chemical reactions which cause deterioration of archival items such as dyes and pigments;
generates heat which accelerates ageing, etc.

2. Be Aware of the Forces of Destruction
b. Relative Humidity
amount of water vapor in the air at a specific temperature expressed as percentage of the total water vapor that the same air will hold at the same temperature;
high humidity will encourage mold growth and structural deformation of paper and books;
low RH will cause embrittlement and cracking of paper.

Basic Principles
![Page 11: PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOPweb.nlp.gov.ph/.../files/conservation_and_preservation_workshop.pdf · PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOP Emma M. Rey, RL Society of Filipino](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022053001/5f05ba667e708231d41467dd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
2. Be Aware of the Forces of Destruction
c. Temperature
Changes in temperature will alter RH.
High temperatures accelerate chemical reactions and hasten deterioration;
low temperatures can cause condensation on the surface materials;
rapid temperature changes cause internal stresses on materials.
Basic Principles
![Page 12: PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOPweb.nlp.gov.ph/.../files/conservation_and_preservation_workshop.pdf · PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOP Emma M. Rey, RL Society of Filipino](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022053001/5f05ba667e708231d41467dd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
2. Be Aware of the Forces of Destruction
d. Pollution
gaseous and particulate contaminate can cause damage to library materials;
present in industrial gases, automobile exhaust, cleaning supplies, paints, untreated wood, adhesives, plastics, and paper products with high lignin content;
grit, grime, smoke, dust are abrasive and acidic.
Basic Principles
![Page 13: PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOPweb.nlp.gov.ph/.../files/conservation_and_preservation_workshop.pdf · PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOP Emma M. Rey, RL Society of Filipino](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022053001/5f05ba667e708231d41467dd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
e. Pest and Mold
maintain cleanliness in the area;
regularly inspect storage areas for sign of pests and animals;
control temperature, at 65% RH molds will grow;
do not allow eating or drinking in the area.

f. Disasters
natural and man-made (fire, floods or leaks, etc.)
preventing and responding to damage from water, fire, or other emergency situations
writing a Disaster Plan
Basic Principles 2. Be Aware of the Forces of Destruction

a. Storage
place all materials in some form of protective enclosure;
provide adequate shelf space;
remove, segregate acidic enclosures to prevent them from damaging other material;
shelving area should have space for over sized and odd items;
metal shelves are preferred;
wooden shelves are acceptable if coated with acrylic latex paint;
shelves should be secure and solidly braced;
no items should be stored on the floor.Image Source Page: http://www.southwestsolutions.com/image/record-box-

Basic Principles 3. Protect the Collection
![Page 16: PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOPweb.nlp.gov.ph/.../files/conservation_and_preservation_workshop.pdf · PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOP Emma M.

b. Protective enclosures
Papers and boards for enclosures must be acid-free;
use inert or chemically stable plastic;
polyester, polypropylene, polyethylene and triacetate are acceptable;
all enclosures must permit removal of contents without risk of damage.

c. Handling
always use clean hands (no hand lotion) before handling materials;
wear lint-free cotton gloves;
use both hands or support an item with a stiff paper when moving or carrying items;
use a trolley or help when carrying oversized or heavy objects;
never use pens near archival materials.

Why Preserve?
• The widespread alarm caused by brittle books/documents in library and archives circles throughout the world
• That unique cultural treasures are in peril and that such a program will begin to rectify the accumulated damage of centuries
• Saving resources – Making sure that collections can withstand several uses, thereby saving money in the long run on replacement copies
![Page 19: PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOPweb.nlp.gov.ph/.../files/conservation_and_preservation_workshop.pdf · PRESERVATION and CONSERVATION WORKSHOP Emma M. Rey, RL Society of Filipino](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022053001/5f05ba667e708231d41467dd/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Why Preserve (Con’t)
• Saving history – beyond the economic value, there is the no less compelling argument of the value of saving historic documents for future research and discovery
• National Heritage Act (Philippines)
• For institutions, preservation is an add-on competency and specialization, combined with the availability of grant funds
• For good service and improved access

SELECTING BOOKS
FOR REMEDIAL WORK
• Retention – how long a book is to be retained
• Use – how regular a book is consulted
• Stability – how stable is the condition of the material
• Rarity, value, significance
