HEAT-SET Tissue Making.
Today we had a mini-workshop in the lab with our colleagues from the Center for Jewish History. We are using the method described by the conservators at NARA during their Book and Paper Group presentation at the AIC Annual Meeting. We are making a variety of tissues including lots of very thin tissues for mending the many brittle serials, including Lucifer: The Light Bearer, we have in NYU’s collections.
Our colleagues from the preservation laboratory http://cjh.org/p/140 attended this mini-workshop earlier today.
