Scrapbook Recommendation Summary



Thanks for the quick responses! Following are the general recommendations from quite a few people:
 
1- Leave the contents in the book, with acid free sheets/tissue between pages
 
2- Dismantle book, make photocopies of originals for hand written notes and order
 
3- Microfilm each page for general use
 
After much discussion, we have decided to leave the book intact. The paper is not eating away at anything but glue, which can be good. If something falls off, it goes into a sleeve of its same size, and gets left in the same place in the book.
 
Thanks again for all your help!
