Abstract
The phased box was developed to house deteriorated and otherwise damaged library materials. Conceived as a temporary housing, it is designed to enclose damaged books compactly, along with any or all loose parts, until proper conservation treatment can be obtained. The phased box is an economical, easily constructed, and sound housing that has been used successfully by many institutions as a permanent protective housing for items other than books.
