Guide to Preservation of Historical Documents

The preservation of manuscripts and other historical documents is central to the mission of LSU Libraries Special Collection. While no documents can last forever, there are many ways to increase their lifespan. This guide will offer some electronic resources to answer questions you may have regarding preservation of your valuable materials.

The Library of Congress offers advice for protecting books, documents, and photographs.

The Preservation Department of Stanford University Libraries also has preservation information online. Here, you will find introductory information on many preservation issues and links to commercial vendors of preservation products and services.
