    Dear colleagues !

    I'm a chief of a chemical laboratory of the State Historical
    Public Library, which is in Moscow. We are very interested by the
    new methods of disinfection of the old books, damaged by mold or
    insects.

    Could you be so kind to find out what disinfectants and
    disinsectants do you apply in your library now for camera
    disinfection of damaged books (except formaline) ?

    Thank you in advance.
    Sincere yours
