The Bodleian Library is offering a practical course in Fasciculing.
The day long course will take place in the Libraries Conservation
and Collection Care department and will offer an insight into the
fundamental requirements and processes involved in Fasciculing.

Fasciculing is a term used, originally in the Bodleian Library, for
describing a system of storage for loose, single or double sheet
papers.  Fascicules are pamphlet-style bindings made up of blank,
archival quality paper sheets with hooked guards as compensation.
Papers are attached using a hinge of Japanese paper and wheat starch
paste onto Fascicule sheets, usually one or two items per page.

Course Agenda:  A short introduction to Fasciculing.  Construction
of Fascicules and how to guard items into Fascicules.
