Water is present when paper is made and when it ages. Water also serves many essential functions when deteriorated paper is treated by conservators. Drawing on paper industry and scientific research, Paper and Water examines closely the relationship between this common cellulosic material and H2O.The interaction between paper and water is a topic of primary importance for every conservator working with paper objects and other cellulose-based materials. Throughout the book, the theories that underlie the effects of water on paper, and their practical application, are presented in relation to the processes of conservation. Paper and Water is a reference and teaching compendium for conservation professionals involved in the preservation of paper objects in archives, libraries and fine museums around the world. Written by experts in paper conservation, this book and DVD aim to serve a rapidly expanding profession.The book includes :- integrated knowledge from disciplines of paper engineering, conservation science and conservation practice- hundreds of full colour illustrations to aid understanding- DVD featuring videos and animations, most of which exclusively produced for this book, and a selection of key illustrations from the book to support teaching

This book elaborates on different aspects of the decision making process concerning the management of climate risk in museums and historic houses. The goal of this publication is to assist collection managers and caretakers by providing information that will allow responsible decisions about the museum indoor climate to be made. The focus is not only on the outcome, but also on the equally important process that leads to that outcome. The different steps contribute significantly to the understanding of the needs of movable and immovable heritage. The decision making process to determine the requirements for the museum indoor climate includes nine steps: Step 1. The process to make a balanced decision starts by clarifying the decision context and evaluating what is important to the decision maker by developing clear objectives. In Step 2 the value of all heritage assets that are affected by the decision are evaluated and the significance of the building and the movable collection is made explicit. Step 3. The climate risks to the moveable collection are assessed. Step 4: Those parts of the building that are considered valuable and susceptible to certain climate conditions are identified. Step 5. The human comfort needs for visitors and staff are expressed. Step 6: To understand the indoor climate, the building physics are explored. Step 7. The climate specifications derived from step 3 to 5 are weighed and for each climate zone the optimal climate conditions are specified. Step 8: Within the value framework established in Step 1, the options to optimize the indoor climate are considered and selected. Step 9: All options to reduce the climate collection risks are evaluated by the objectives established in Step 1.
