Jeffrey Bowen Pepperdine Libraries has engaged in exciting conservation work to stabilize a selection of books from its Boone Special Collections. The Libraries engaged Pepperdine faculty from the Humanities and Teacher Education Division to sort through the collection in collaboration with Special Collections librarians and identify those books of enduring value that the faculty might like to use in the classroom or their research. Then the Libraries identified a professional book conservator to carefully mend the damage so that students, faculty, and staff can now safely interact with the centuries-old books.
