Even rare books need to rest! 📚 Our Library Exhibition Hall is closed now through Aug. 25 for collections rotation. Learn more about how we care for rare works with conservator Austin Plann Curley. Friendly reminder: wearing gloves while handling rare books and manuscripts can transfer debris to the object and reduce dexterity, which increases the risk of damage. For materials like photographs, which can be damaged by fingerprints, gloves should be worn.🧤
