Its great to think that this book was probably thrown in someones bag or kept on a messy desk dangerously close to a drink, but now its treated with such delicate care.
As an archivist I love seeing people ask this question! So exciting to see people interested in getting into the work. Museum studies, or a library science certification or degree :) a lot of programs also have special concentrations offered (not that you have to have it) for conservation and preservation!
You can get a degree in a few things that could funnel you in to this. I worked at the kentucky museum and research library through college. And I would suggest trying to do that! I worked directly under the museum curator helping with exhibits. I wasn’t trained to handle antique items or anything like that, but that’s exactly what our curator had a degree for. I can’t remember exactly what it’s called though. I didn’t go into that field-it was just my campus job. But I learned a lot. And there were several student employees that wanted to be museum curators and were in school for that.
Wow! Just Wow! I have seen books in museums like this before but this is the best tutorial on the know-how!! I have some immensely precious first, second and third editions of Charles Lyell, Charles Darwin, Alfred Russel Wallace, Thomas Henry Huxley etc., in my natural history library. And now I know how to preserve them with love! Thank you very much indeed Natural History Museum!
That was wonderful. I learned a lot from your video, such as wrapping a book for tying and more. You have beautiful nails btw! An inspiration for this old nail biter! I worked in school libraries sometimes and always had a penchant for covering books to look after them. I still cover my new book covers carefully with plastic. One niggle...the sound at the beginning was very muted and hard to understand. Thanks for the instructional video.
The gloves might be to protect their hands not the paper. When it comes to handling delicate items like old paper, some conservators handle with bare hands. More accidents & tears happen when you wear gloves and don't have as much finger sensitivity.
The ASMR was effective, but I have to question whether book wrapping with such thick paper/cardboard was beneficial, given that the book needs to be tied shut. The book will become somewhat warped, and will continue to decay inside the wrapper regardless.
@@tdpay9015 Which of my two honours degrees are you referring to?? Btw, your rudeness and immaturity are not only off the scale, you really need to do something about that chip on your shoulder regarding your lack of tertiary education. I simply asked you a question you egregious and insecure child.
@@tdpay9015 Which of my two honours degrees? Your response was risibly insecure, I simply asked you a question. Your perception of condensation and arrogance is simply that, the roots being your chip on your shoulder.🤦🤡
@@C.Hughes-Lloyd This is the internet. No one cares about your degrees. People can join in the conversation, but no one is going to bow down to your argument from authority. By the way, it's condescension, not condensation.
@@C.Hughes-Lloyd idk if this is like a reference to something, but in case it isn't, the v&a museum's youtube channel has been doing these types of asmr videos for a while now. seems like it's catching on as a way to showcase their stuff and encourage people to go to their exhibitions.
Generally, many people who work in fields like conservation, history of art, or anthropology are from middle class - upper class backgrounds. They're usually not poor, and have probably have family money or passive incomes to support a job that is usually not very well paid or secure.
@RedArtistx This is simply untrue. I was an academic and career advisor for students pursuing arts and humanities careers for many years. Conservators come from many different backgrounds, and given that it's a specialized field, there's plenty of work to be had, given that it takes a decent amount of training.
I mentioned in a comment below that I was a academic and career advisor for students looking to get into the arts and humanities fields, so I actually helped get students into these types of roles. If you are interested, you generally need an undergraduate degree in a relevant field, which can be studio art, art history, archeology, chemistry, or materials sciences. Then you need to obtain a Master's degree from an accredited university. University of Delaware actually has a program where you can take undergrad courses that are directly relevant. Then you'll need to pursue a two year apprenticeship with a museum, gallery, heritage center, or university, which is generally where most students land their first job. Conservators generally make 50-80k per year depending on their location. Don't listen to the naysayers. It doesn't pay like most STEM fields, but it pays plenty to live a quiet life. I always recommend that students do their core classes at a local community college before going to university if they are pressed for finances.
@@rskye11 thank you for that info. It would be quite a bit less than what I make now but the work life balance sounds amazing. If I could do it all over again, I would do something like this.
I was enjoying this video until the incessant beeping started in the background. The beeping is obviously NOT due to the content of the video but sounded like construction nearby…..unfortunately.

Like your Mum.
Lol sorry
Love that more museums are making ASMR videos.
I love things like this! How does someone get into this line of work? Seems so peaceful just preserving books and helping to elongate their lives.
Could be anything from Archivist studies to Museology or things like that.

I love how crisply that cover paper folds, very satsfying 🤗

Thanks for such a lovely comment, so glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for your feedback, we hope you enjoy the rest of our ASMR videos 😄
Why do you start by wearing gloves but then after the cleaning, you can touch with bare hands?
The gloves might be to protect their hands not the paper. When it comes to handling delicate items like old paper, some conservators handle with bare hands. More accidents & tears happen when you wear gloves and don't have as much finger sensitivity.
I work at a natural history museum I would be thrilled!!!! To be in this person's position!!!
wonderful! so relaxing and so fun to learn as well. thank you!
OH WHAT there’s another version of this 😍😍
And there's lots more from our ASMR series! Why not take a trip fossil hunting on the Isle of Wight 👉 th-cam.com/video/WKZfetEvt3I/w-d-xo.html
What is the stone thing she uses to score and fold the paper?
The ASMR was effective, but I have to question whether book wrapping with such thick paper/cardboard was beneficial, given that the book needs to be tied shut. The book will become somewhat warped, and will continue to decay inside the wrapper regardless.
And you got your degree in Conservation where precisely?
@@C.Hughes-Lloyd The same place you got your degree in arrogance and condescension.

Something very satisfying in watching this : )
well, someone got the memo from the v&a museum.
What are you blabbering about??

@@C.Hughes-Lloyd Hardly blabbering, it was a short sentence.
What about Mylar coverings?
Everything was great , I’ve yet to see any book restoration folks able to cut through paper in one try though why is that 😅😅
I wonder where this person is from , the accent is so specific and familiar but I’m sure it’s a regional dialect. I’d love to know!
I wonder how one gets a job like this?

@@RedArtistx but is there a degree for this, or a college course, or what?

This how people want their Vinted items packed
Ooooooooooh wonderful ❤
No books on Shlorp
She sounds just like Olivia Coleman 😮
Cool.
Is this the same gal that did Queen Victoria shoe refurb??

Try using brown paper.
You're clueless.
The beeping really disqualifies this from being good ASMR. Sorry!
This is not an ASMR! Voice is so loud!
