Physical Conservation – Archival enclosures

The team spent weeks earlier this year measuring every single volume and artefact, recording their sizes, collating the data, and ordering archival enclosures for each item. On May 26th Peter van Reenen from Jansen Beuns Wijsmuller, the Netherlands supplier of conservation enclosures, visited the project and provided valuable information for further conservation care in the future.

The conservation materials have now arrived from in the Netherlands and their introduction into the Collection will be carefully managed over the next few months.

A workshop, co-hosted with DK Conservators on 10th August will kick start this process:
