Inside the Preservation studio
Meet our preservation technician Savina Hopkins, whose job is to re-house items in the Library's collection so that they're stable and protected. Her meticulous work helps slow down the chemical and physical degradation of the millions of books, manuscripts, ephemera, photographs and objects in our collection.
Savina lets us into her studio for a sneak peek at her recent work creating custom boxes (which are works of art in themselves!) to house the Library's precious Vali Myers archive.
