Abstract
The scope of this bibliography includes aspects of the conservation of textiles for museum use. Each entry is annotated with the following terms: examination and/or analysis -- determination of what should be done or not done with an object; cleaning, by whatever means necessary; restoration to the object's intended state; preservation (only including instances of the addition of a foreign substance); storage and fumigation; exhibition, including mounting; and environment in the museum necessary to the well being of the object. Although most conservators will have need only of the more recent titles, for historical purposes English titles published since 1931 -- ICCROM
