Teacher: Renate Mesmer

As one of many treatment possibilities in paper conservation, paper
splitting is extremely suitable for paper which is damaged by
micro-organisms, ink corrosion or from inherently poor quality
materials (i.e. ground wood paper). This course will show that
single sheets can be treated without large technical equipment.
Emphasis will be on hands on work. Renate Mesmer will give tips and
ideas from her experience in paper splitting.
