PRESERVATION <br /> QUESTIONS <br /> QUESTIONS YOU MAY HEAR - <br /> QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE <br /> 6. Q. WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMEONE WANTS INFORMATION FROM A <br /> BOOK WHICH IS BEING RESTORED? <br /> • A. Information can be given to you over the phone, or a photocopy of the <br /> information may be mailed or faxed to your office. <br /> 7. Q. HOW LONG WILL BOOKS LAST AFTER RESTORATION? <br /> A. Unlike museum restoration, where items are placed under glass and not <br /> touched, restored permanent records are reintroduced into daily use. That is why <br /> records are restored in strict accordance with the highest standards in materials, <br /> methods and workmanship. With reasonable maintenance and care, we estimate <br /> that restored records which have been deacidified can perform for upwards of two <br /> or three centuries before they will need additional treatment. <br /> 8. Q. ARE THERE OTHER ADVANTAGES TO RECORDS RESTORATION? <br /> A. Yes. Records managers who begin a restoration program can be proud that <br /> they have taken the most important step possible to preserve the written history <br /> of the communities they serve,making this unique information available to future <br /> generations. <br /> • <br />
