would guess about all that can be done is keeping the mold off -- perhaps storing it in a container with some desiccant
The mold grows faster then children! Good idea with the desiccant I will try that . Thank you Epson!
i know mold is like the death howler of books -- sometime i place used dryer sheets between the pages of my old books -- seems to help and they smell nice!!!!! -- these little sheets also help keep the mosquitos away if you stick them in your pockets -- ok enough with susie homemaker here
Good tips epson!
Thats a good one for Pinterest!
Drier sheets will contain chemicals that may yellow the pages. Acidic. Bad idea.
Desiccants are okay to an extent, but if it goes down under 30% humidity the pages may become brittle, thus disintegrating.
