Photocopy paper

From: Jeffrey Barr <*jefbarr*> Date: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 · jefbarr

We have stopped purchasing acid-free paper here because of the low
acidity of our photocopy paper. I feel uncomfortable with this
because acid-free paper is guaranteed, while the photocopy paper has
no such guarantee and could fluctuate.  Also, our paper supplier
could change at any time. Am I being unduly concerned?
