OUR SERVICES
CONSERVATION
We accept rare books, family bibles, scrapbooks, broadsides, prints, maps, ephemera, and other works on paper. We are experienced in the preventative and interventive conservation of leather, paper, cloth, and parchment.
CONSULTING
The focus of our consultations is on advising clients on proper storage, procedures and policies that govern special collections. Our consultations are geared towards collectors, museums, and university library administration.
