Description

How does the Smithsonian Institution Archives determine which records to keep and which to discard? Avoid folding the newspaper. When handling newspapers that you intend to preserve, try to never fold them except on their original middle crease. Keep the edges aligned neatly so that the center fold remains intact and other portions of the newspaper don’t get folded inadvertently. [2] X Research source Use storage containers and materials manufactured to be archival quality, acid-free, and lignin-free.

The Newspaper Preservation Kit is a good way to preserve a small collection of papers and can be used to save any kind of oversize document or photograph. The kit includes white cotton gloves, acid-free folders, and drop-front box. 5. Acid-free Tissue Paper Harriman, Robert B., with Doris Hamburg; ed. by Carole Zimmermann and Carrie Beyer. Preserving Newspapers. Preservation Leaflet, no. 5. Washington, DC: Library of Congress, Preservation Directorate, 1995. Your newspaper storage area should be between 60 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit (or between 15 and 21 degree Celsius). Humidity should be between 40 and 50 percent.The national professional association for conservators, the American Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works (AIC) , maintains an online directory for finding a conservator by specialty and geographic location and provides information on how to choose a conservator. In addition, AIC also offers guidelines for the care of collections beyond library materials. Newspapers from the mid-19th century onwards are printed on inexpensive, machine-made, wood pulp paper that is not manufactured for longevity. Due to the inherent chemical instabilities of such low-quality wood pulp papers, these newspapers are inherently acidic. Good storage is especially critical to the preservation of acidic papers, but the following guidelines apply to all newspapers, including those from before the mid-19th century, which are printed on better quality paper: Consider weight as well as size when selecting containers. Archival materials are heavier than average cardboard, and large documents cases can become very heavy when filled with acid-free file folders and documents.

Lignin-free or low-lignin items are free or limited amounts of lignin, an organic substance that can cause acid to form in storage containers over time. These POLYESTER NEWSPAPER SLEEVES are made from 4mil archival polyester that has been approved by the Library of Congress for long-term storage. We use DuPont inert Melinex® or a suitable equivalent. This material has passed the Photo Activity Test (P.A.T.) which means thatthis material willnot cause deterioration or harm to items stored in it. Photographic Activity Test (PAT) is a standardized test to determine how photo storage materials interact with photographs. It is used mostly with plastic storage sleeves and containers. Polyester, polyethylene, and polypropylene are chemically inert plastics and acceptable for sleeves and enclosures. Any plastic containing polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is not recommended.

The preservation procedures described here have been used by the Library of Congress in the care of its collections and are considered suitable by the Library as described; however, the Library will not be responsible for damage to your collection should damage result from the use of these procedures. Make sure your hands are dry before touching the newspaper, especially if you just washed your hands. Preservation microfilming remains the most economical and proven option to preserve the intellectual content of newspapers on a large scale. “Preservation microfilming” is distinguished from microfilming by adherence to published standards for all aspects of the creation, maintenance, and storage of the film and assumes strict bibliographic control. If contracting for preservation microfilming services, the service provider should have proven experience with preservation microfilming projects. Selected Further Reading: Document cases are made in varying colors, length, and width. Box color does not affect archival quality and may be useful to separate family collections. Select the length, legal or letter, to accommodate your papers housed inside acid-free folders. Typical box widths are 2-inch, 5-inch, and 7-inch. The small 2-inch is useful for small collections. I use the middle 5-inch wide cases because the larger box can become quite heavy when full. 3. Oversize Document or Photo Box

Micrographics - Standard Recommended Practice for Microfilming Printed Newspapers on 35mm Roll Microfilm.Scan newspapers. Another option for preserving newspapers is to use a scanner or copier to reproduce the document. Scanning allows you to create a digital copy of the newspaper that you can keep on your computer and then view digitally or make copies of it whenever you want. Copies made on regular printing paper will be more durable than the original newspaper itself.
