<p>[QUOTE="silverthwait, post: 5866, member: 103"]There are books written on this subject, of course, from which one can glean all kinds of more finite info, but the most important thing one can do is atmosphere. Keep the temperature to within ten degrees on either side of 60, and the humidity just right. I have no clue if humidifiers come with a gauge, or if they can be programmed to turn on or off when necessary. ??</p><p><br /></p><p>Presumably the books could have been donated to some appropriate Virginia facility, so I presume you want to keep them. I know I would!!! Of course...you might want to buy another oriental rug. One that matches the colors in the books. Actually, my rug would work very well. Would you like my address?</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
