Abstract
A written preservation policy which meets the objectives of each library and which falls within its financial and staff resources is recommended. The causes of paper deterioration in libraries are briefly discussed. Current preservation practices in libraries are described as inadequate. Preliminary findings of research in Chicago are presented to complete these guidelines for preservations.
