Houston History Research Center Presents: Aquatic Book Rescue!

Houston History Research Center Presents: Aquatic Book Rescue! In-Person

Anyone who has lived in Houston and Southeast Texas for any length of time knows how common flooding can be, and just how easy it can be to lose your books and personal papers to water damage. Whether the water damage comes from rain, flooding, or extensive humidity, the effect on your important records can be severe. To finish this year’s Preservation Week programming, the Houston History Research Center will be hosting a workshop that will cover typical sources of water damage and how to prevent and respond to this damage. There will also be a practical demonstration on how to properly care for books and documents that are still wet.
