I am conducting research into the deacidification of fragile paper-based items such as newspapers and want to investigate what other institutions are doing to preserve them. I would like to know which methods you have used (aqueous or non-aqueous), their costs in comparison to other methods and overall efficacy. If your institution has any newspapers in its collection, I would also like to know what preventive measures are being taken to ensure their longevity. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
