This document provides instructions for rehousing rare or fragile pamphlets in pre-fabricated four-flap enclosures and for preserving bookplates removed from old binders. The instructions include clipping pamphlet corners, folding and marking new covers, recording pamphlet condition, removing pamphlets from old covers, placing pamphlets in new covers, cleaning and reducing bookplate boards, drying bookplates between blotters, and attaching preserved bookplates to new binders. The document was written by Valinda S. Carroll, Preservation Manager at Harvey Library of Hampton University on April 3, 2013.
The document provides instructions for windowing chicken eggs in order to access the developing embryo for experimental studies. The key steps are:
1. Candling the egg to locate the embryo.
2. Scrapping a small window in the eggshell directly above the embryo using sandpaper.
3. Carefully cutting a 1cm x 1cm window and removing the shell without disturbing the membrane below.
4. The window allows observation and manipulation of the embryo, such as adding test reagents. The window is then sealed with parafilm and the egg returned to incubation. Windowing provides non-invasive access to the embryo for developmental studies using the chicken egg model.
A lanyard for your keys
Do you keep your keys on a lanyard? I started a couple of years ago when I was in and out of the car with a baby in a capsule and a small child. I needed two free hands and easy access to car and front door keys. The long length of lanyard could always be grabbed on the way out, then slung around my neck when shuffling between front door, car, pram, drop off point.
Even if you’re not juggling those things, I think it’s worth having keys at the ready when you’re getting in and out of your home or car. Less time spent rummaging through the dark bottomless pit of a handbag alone, the better.
However, fast forward a couple of years and I still seem to be sporting the same freebie lanyard with a logo of a football team. With red and white stripes, it clashes perfectly with most of my clothes. Nice accessory! (not).
Time for the “eye catching” lanyard to go and be replaced with something more appealing. Since tassels are the thing right now, they are the decorative detail to add to a key ring and then make a lanyard.
Making the Tassel
There are different way to tackle tassel-making depending upon whether you use thread or cut leather. For this tutorial I used the tassel making technique perfected here by Fall for DIY (blog) when they ran a “tassel happy challenge” on Instagram. I’ve used Francesca’s cardboard template design. It’s a bit like making a pom pom.
I’ve also played around with different styles for tying them together, embellishing (decorating) and attaching the tassel to a clip. Do the same and see what you prefer.
Enjoy having a smart tassel lanyard for your keys.
A note about materials
I bought some “D” ring clips from Lincraft (Haberdashery and Craft supplies in Australia) but you can easily use metal circle clips, or swivel hooks. I’ve re-used the swivel hooks from old promotional lanyards.
I also used a copper adhesive tape for effect on the tassel. My roll came from Japan, but you can buy copper and aluminium tape at hardware stores. Otherwise fabric tape is another option.
I’ve used mock-suede leather thonging I found from haberdashery supplies, but real leather thonging would be a nicer option.

The Harvey Library has developed guidelines for placing bookplates to avoid confusion. Bookplates must be made from acid-free paper and attached with stable adhesives. They should be printed with laser printers or stable inks. The preferred locations for bookplates are the front paste-down or inside covers. Bookplates should not cover text or illustrations and should be placed where dust jackets will not conceal them. Old Hampton Institute bookplates should be preserved. Staff should consult the Assistant Director for guidance if unsure about placement.
The document provides instructions for replacing irregular DVD covers with standardized plastic DVD cases for circulation. DVDs with damaged packaging must be transferred to sturdy cases that fit into lockable security boxes. The standardized cases have a height of 7.25 inches and varying widths depending on the number of disks.

Photoshop is used to scan, combine, and edit cover images to create standardized replacement covers that preserve essential information for circulation.
Understanding and Caring for Architectural DrawingsValinda Carroll
This document summarizes the key preservation factors, materials, and processes used in architectural drawings from the 18th century to present. It discusses the substrates such as rag paper and machine made papers used, drawing media like graphite pencils and inks, and reproduction processes including blueprints, diazo prints, and silver halide photographs. Recommendations are provided for identifying processes, handling, storage, and resources for further information.
Collection Care III: Fungi, Pests, PollutantsValinda Carroll
Fungi, insects, rodents, and air pollutants pose risks to museum collections. Regular inspections and integrated pest management are recommended to control biological agents. Proper use of personal protective equipment is important when dealing with mold. Sealing entry points, removing food/shelter, and monitoring with traps can help control pests. Air pollutants such as soot, VOCs, ozone, and off-gassing materials must be avoided or mitigated through closed windows, filters, and protective enclosures. Materials that absorb chemicals can be incorporated into exhibit housings to safeguard collections.
The document discusses various tools for monitoring environmental conditions like temperature and humidity that can damage collections, including hygrometers, psychrometers, data loggers, and indicator cards. It explains that temperature and humidity should be monitored together, as temperature affects relative humidity levels. The ideal storage conditions for most collections is a relative humidity between 35-55% along with moderate temperature fluctuations to avoid damage from fluctuations or high levels.
Light exposure can lead to fading, yellowing, and weakening of materials like fibers and polymers. Tools like blue wool swatches, light meters, and UV meters can help monitor light levels. Blue wool provides a qualitative measure of fading over time but only for sunlight, not artificial lights. Light meters measure lux or foot-candles but do not provide a permanent record. UV levels above 75 microwatts per lumen can damage materials and should be filtered. Strategies to reduce light exposure include limiting display times, adding UV filters to windows and lights, closing shades and shutters, and using motion detectors for lighting.
1. Environmental factors like temperature, humidity, light, pests, and air pollution can damage collection objects.
2. Tools like data loggers, hygrothermographs, and humidity/temperature indicators are used to monitor damaging environmental conditions.
3. High temperatures, humidity, and light levels can cause chemical deterioration, mold growth, fading, and physical damage to collection objects.
Preservation of Archives and Special CollectionsValinda Carroll
This document provides an overview of preservation in archives and special collections. It defines key terms like preservation, conservation, and restoration. It discusses the historic, legal, and scholarly value of archival materials. It outlines important properties to consider for original archival documents like format, medium, substrate, condition, date, and artist/author. It also examines the stability of these properties. Finally, it details various agents of deterioration like heat, humidity, light, pests, inherent vice, and handling and provides strategies for monitoring collections and implementing controls.
This document discusses the role of women artists in book decoration and marketing in the Victorian publishing industry. It covers how women worked in book production, designing covers and illustrations. Their designs were used to market books and authors. Specific women artists discussed include Sarah Wyman Whitman, Alice Cordelia Morse, and Margaret Armstrong, who created cover designs that promoted the texts and increased sales. Their work helped branding authors and was featured in book catalogues, establishing their reputations in the industry.
1. Basic pamphlet
1. Check crease in binder; use bone folder to make or reinforce center crease.
2. Trim corners of binder with corner rounder.
3. OPTIONAL STEP FOR TRADITIONAL BINDERS: Place security strip into binder.
4. OPTIONAL STEP FOR TRADITIONAL BINDERS: Glue cloth into binder with PVA (pH neutral adhesive).
Run bone folder along center crease to confirm adhesion. Re-fold the binder while adhesive is wet.
5. Remove staples from pamphlet using flat staple opener or microspatula.
6. Place pamphlet into binder with about ¼” (~ 5mm) margin at the bottom edge. There should be at
least ¼” on all three edges. Make sure that the outer fold of the pamphlet is touching the inside fold of
the pamphlet binder (you may use bulldog clips to hold the pamphlet in place).
7. Line up the fold of the pamphlet and binder with the edge of the table and punch pilot holes in the
pamphlet. Keep the pamphlet and binder half-closed, or the holes will not line up correctly in sewing.
To ensure that sewing has the correct tension, keep the pamphlet opened no
more than 90 degrees when you are pulling the thread. Remember to pull parallel
to the spine. DO NOT OPEN THE PAMPHLET FLAT WHILE PULLING ON THE
SEWING.
8. Use 20/2 linen thread (Gaylord #768) and 2 inch needle to sew pamphlet in Butterfly pattern (B); tie
with square knot.
9. FOR NEW BINDERS: Place security strip into binder between cloth and board.
10. Remove release paper and adhere outer cloth over the sewing. Smooth with bone folder.
To facilitate piercing and sewing, work from the side, rather than placing the work directly in front of
you.
