The Preservation Lab

Since forming in 2012, the primary mission of the collaborative Preservation Lab is to preserve and conserve the collections of the Cincinnati & Hamilton County Public Library and the University of Cincinnati Libraries. The treatment reports and photographic documentation that comprise this Digital Resource Collection are a record of conservation treatments conducted in the lab on special collections items held either by the University of Cincinnati Libraries or the Cincinnati & Hamilton County Public Library. The collection is divided by owning institution.

For more information about the reports you'll find in this collection, please visit The Preservation Lab digital collection landing page.
