Videos on collections care

The Preservation Department at the British Library has produced a
series of 9 short videos aimed at readers but also of use to staff
on the best ways to use a variety of collection items. To reach as
many readers as possible, the videos are linked to pages on the BL
web site related to registration, conditions of use, collections and
catalogues and collection care. The videos are being played in the
Reader Registration Office and there is a direct link to them from
the opening screen on the Reading Room PCs.

Each short video shows material in a particular format with
demonstrations of how to handle the items. The videos can be viewed
