The UNCG University Libraries 2015-16 Innovation Grant was awarded to Isabella Baltar of the Libraries' Preservation Services Division for her project "No Boundaries in Preservation." Mrs. Baltar used the funds to develop instructional videos and posters on basic preservation and conservation of books and documents. A native of Brazil, Mrs. Baltar created the materials in English, Spanish and Portuguese to make the information available to a wide range of communities within the United State and Latin countries. They cover topics such as preventing water disasters, cleaning books and paper, best practices for small digitization projects, brittle paper repair and archival storage enclosures. The videos and posters are available to everyone -- hence "No Boundaries!" Click here for more information and to view the videos and posters.
