A Simple Book Repair Manual [Quicktime]
http://www.dartmouth.edu/~preserve/repair/repairindex.htm
Created by the Dartmouth College Library Preservation Services, this
handy and straightforward site should appeal to book lovers and
collectors. The site is basically an electronic version of the print
publication, supplemented by illustrative photos and a Quicktime
movie. The manual discusses guiding principles to book repair, tools,
practical guidelines, as well as guiding users through nine common
repairs. These include torn pages, hinge repair, hinge tightening,
corner repair, and spine repair, among others. A glossary and
bibliography are also included.
