Did you know the Library has a Conservation Lab? Since 1981, they have been responsible for the care of all paper-based materials in the stacks from all our libraries and Archives & Special Collections, including books, maps, manuscripts, posters, photographs, personal letters, and documents. Not only is it essential for maintaining our collections, but their processes are super interesting!
Join the UConn Library's celebration of Preservation Week to learn more about how we protect and restore materials with tours of the Conservation Lab
