@tokyo 14 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Another weather related question! I have a few good books, ones I want to keep in good condition. Though I'm not sure exactly the best way to do that especially in summer with the heat and humidity. Any top tips? Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Put them in cardboard boxes but leave it open. They will store fine. Or close the box and put a moisture drying thing i(what ever its called) n the box which you can buy at a DIY shop. Link to post Share on other sites
@tokyo 14 Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 I suppose my main concewrn is when the pages get slightly discoloured. Worried about heat and humidity for the time I'm not around over summer. Link to post Share on other sites

JA2340 16 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Donate them to the local library, then borrow them back whenever you need - they should have the book storing thing fairly right by now! Link to post Share on other sites
