Conservation & Preservation Resources

Welcome to Tulane's new Conservation and Preservation Resources Page, where you'll find information on the care and treatment of library materials.

Book Anatomy Revealed!

We miss being able to show people books. But, we can still give you a virtual glimpse into book history with our new online exhibit, Books Through Their Pages! Featuring books from Tulane University Special Collections, the Latin American Library, and Tulane's circulating collections, this exhibit shows books from a range of places and time periods, and the physical stuff (#bookguts) that they're made of. And we have some handy sliders that feature book terminology and before and after conservation images! Built as a collaboration between librarians and conservators, this exhibit takes a look at the structure of the book, and how that has changed over time.
