Family photographs and documents are the top artifacts that get passed down from generation to generation. Most of these artifacts end up in a variety of photograph albums and boxes that are put in garages, cellars, attics, and a variety of other elements that will /or inevitably damage and/or destroy the artifacts that you wish to preserve. This presentation goes through how to preserve and conserve these materials from the supplies that are needed to the best practices in how to best maintain these items for future generations, including what to do with photographs in scrapbooks and sticky photograph albums.
