Attached receipts
We are systematically going through our rare books and archives, and we would use some of the POP money to purchase non-buffered tissue paper for wrapping our rare items before placing them in archive boxes. This will help neutralise acids and prevent acid migration from outside. We also want to protect our new and old books with jacket covers. This would extend the life of paper dust jackets so the books can be enjoyed for many years to come. This is what we would use the rest of the POP money.
