- | In the past years the [[http://www.dnb.de/EN|DNB]] has been using mass deacidification to preserve acidic paper, but mechanical preservation methods are reaching their limits. The current project is a starting point for the library to gain knowledge in the field and to plan future digitization. Due to copyright requirements most digitized books are only available from within the library. | ||
