    I've had an internship at a local paper museum where I learned all the analogue techniques that applied to art, under which bookbinding. In a 6 month time, I learned to strip a book, make a book myself, add pages, sew pages and that stuff. It's such a therapeutic process. I will be forever grateful that I learned this. This was also so satisfying to watch and it easily could be a 30 minute video!! Books are ancient relics from our past and they need to be saved for the future. Great job @Insider!

    I loved the video, the way it is narrated and shot - but she suddenly went from reparing one single page to glueing the top back on. There was no reassembly and I wanted to look how she dried the pages without them wrinkling.
    Lovely work and the book looks phantastic in the end.

    I just found quite a few 100 & 150+ year old books in our library. Soaking pages that old seems terrifying! I can certainly see why book conservators get paid as much as they do for restoration!
    What about different types of paper? Brittle pages that are near to becoming dust? Water soluble inks?
    I imagine you'd need to test a page 1st?
    I think we may look them up, as the older ones may belong in a museum (one was apparently for a Duke in England. The plate prints in it are amazing! I found an old roll book for those from the US who fought in WWI as well.
    I don't want to lose these treasures!
    These will be amazing if we can get them back to where people can handle them, again. I'm hoping we can do that!
    I'm asked to see if we have a book conservator in our church, and am waiting for an answer.
    I know a little, but it would be certainly nerve-racking to try this with very important and rare books! that are irreplaceable!
    I'm hoping we have someone local that can not only restore these books, but that I can learn more first-hand from them.
    I could try with perhaps some that aren't as important, but those irreplaceable books certainly I would feel FAR more comfortable having a professional work on them.
    We have one with color plates, that were certainly rare for their time.
    I would like to preserve them for another 150 years, if possible!
    We have one that the page edges crumble on touching them. I was thinking perhaps a hot lamination to hold the remaining paper together???
    Thank you for sharing this process! I may try it on one of my 100 or so year-old books? Perhaps on a page that is blank?
    I'm sure most of that old ink was oil-based, BUT I wonder if some is not?
    The one book with pages crumbling is a big concern.
    Can you refer me to a more in-depth tutorial? Perhaps a professional book conservator in the Los Angels area?
    Thank you! Great video, but so many questions and concerns!
