This discussion page was started in July 2014 to collect ideas for improving the chapter. It includes the suggestions offered by the BPG Publications Committee, PCC Task Force in 2007-2009. Please feel free to add your own suggestions for improvement.
- This is a high priority chapter for revision because it is only an outline prepared by two compilers. Most of the information missing here is found throughout the “Lining” chapter. It may make sense to merge the two with all the minutia of mending first so that information on these complimentary activities is not repeated.
- Add discussion of remoistenable tissue with references to recent articles.
- Add discussion of Korean or other long fiber tissue.
Possible reference to add:
The effects of plant dyes, watercolours and acrylic paints on the physical, chemical and biological stability of Japanese tissue paper used in paper conservation
