Preserving For Posterity
I chanced upon this interesting article in The Telegraph….about a project by St. Xavier’s College, in partnership with Unesco to conserve its rare collection of books.
To preserve the past for the future, St Xavier’s College has embarked on a journey with Unesco to conserve its wealth of rare books and manuscripts. Driven by the urgent need to archive rare works marked by broken spines and brittle pages, Xaviers has become the first college in eastern India to be a part of Unesco’s Memory of the World Programme.
