Learn how to restore books at home in this hands-on tutorial with our book conservator, Mitchel Gundrum. In this step-by-step video, you’ll learn three basic book repair techniques used by conservators to address common issues within paperbacks and hardcovers: double-fan adhesive binding, reinforcing broken hinges, and mending torn pages.
Adapted from professional practices used to care for The Huntington’s collection of more than 12 million rare books, manuscripts, and other materials, these techniques offer practical ways to extend the life of your books.
