The study of the multiple roles of metal ions in biological systems, the rapidly expanding interface between inorganic chemistry and biology constitutes the subject called Biological Inorganic Chemistry. The present text, written by a biochemist, with a long career experience in the field (particularly iron and copper) presents an introduction to this exciting and dynamic field. The book begins with introductory chapters, which together constitute an overview of thBioinorganic chemistryChemistry, InorganicBioinorganic chemistry.Chemistry, Inorganic.572.51Crichton Robert R520760MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910962873603321Biological inorganic chemistry2094024UNINA07866nam 2200757Ia 450 991096447370332120250411153432.09786613093554978083899341508389934199780838998137083899813597812830935521283093553(CKB)3710000001409199(MiAaPQ)EBC3001584(Au-PeEL)EBL3001584(CaPaEBR)ebr10179780(OCoLC)437177123(EXLCZ)99371000000140919920030904d2005 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierPreservation and conservation for libraries and archives /Nelly Balloffet and Jenny Hille ; Judith Reed, technical editor ; Jenny Hille, illustrator1st ed.Chicago American Library Associationc20051 online resource (237 pages)Description based upon print version of record.9780838908792 0838908799 Includes bibliographical references (p. 204-207) and index.Intro -- Contents -- Foreword -- Preface -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- Section 1: The Basics of Preservation -- Environment -- Temperature and Humidity -- Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) -- Coping with Old HVAC Systems -- Cold Storage -- Monitoring Environmental Conditions -- Light -- Maintenance and Housekeeping -- Education -- Basic Rules for Using Research Materials -- Staff Training -- Patron Education -- Disaster Planning and Response -- Evacuation of Patrons and Staff -- Contingency Arrangements during an Emergency -- Collection Priorities -- General Assessment or Survey -- Compile a Disaster Plan -- Construction and Renovations -- Water Emergencies: The Importance of Quick Action -- Failure of HVAC System -- Mold -- Disaster Recovery -- Storage Methods -- Storage Furniture -- Book Storage in Libraries -- Book Storage in Archives -- Document Storage -- Storage of Larger Items -- Roll Storage -- Framed Art Storage -- Off-Site Storage Spaces -- Attics, Barns, and Other Unheated Spaces -- Summary of Basic Preservation Measures -- Procedures to Avoid -- Work Flow Charts -- Section 2: Getting Started: Work Space, Equipment, Tools, and Techniques -- Setting Up a Work Area for Preservation Activities -- Dedicated Space -- Lighting and Environment -- Storage -- Office Area -- Equipment -- Cutters -- Presses -- Hand Tools -- Working Tips -- Measuring -- Grain Direction -- Cutting and Trimming -- Scoring and Folding -- Using Adhesives -- General Working Tips -- Section 3: Simple Preservation Techniques: Rehousing Library and Archive Materials -- Rehousing Library and Archive Materials -- Determining What Materials Need Rehousing -- Preliminary Stages -- Counting -- Ordering Supplies -- Cleaning Materials -- Storage Containers (Preservation Enclosures) -- Enclosures -- Archival?

The answer is to provide appropriate care for the collection from the outset, while also guiding staff on making needed repairs. In Preservation and Conservation, two experts show library administrators and decision makers optimal collection preservation techniques, what it takes to set up a conservation work area, and safe ways to mount a small exhibit. In between, those responsible for repairs will find easily learned, illustrated,PRESERVATION & CONSERVATION FOR LIBRARIES AND ARCHIVESLibrary materialsConservation and restorationHandbooks, manuals, etcArchival materialsConservation and restorationHandbooks, manuals, etcLibrary materialsStorageHandbooks, manuals, etcArchival materialsStorageHandbooks, manuals, etcPaperPreservationHandbooks, manuals, etcBooksConservation and restorationHandbooks, manuals, etcLibrary exhibitsHandbooks, manuals, etcArchivesExhibitionsHandbooks, manuals, etcLibrary materialsConservation and restorationArchival materialsConservation and restorationLibrary materialsStorageArchival materialsStoragePaperPreservationBooksConservation and restorationLibrary exhibitsArchivesExhibitions025.8/4Balloffet Nelly1806787Hille Jenny1806788Reed Judith A1806789MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910964473703321Preservation and conservation for libraries and archives4356161UNINA
