Re: water damage/repair query



Dear Cindy:

I'll defer to more knowledgeable colleagues but I've been told by others
that you have 48 hours to deal with wet books and after that, it's too
late.  I actually attempted to pull apart pages of some student newspapers
(they were printed on glossy paper rather than standard newspaper)--I had
some success using a long, flat envelope opener.  I was able to separate
most of the pages but lost some information.

By the way... what's with the "boringlibrarian" in your email address?
(boringlibrarian@yahoo.com)
