[SFFLibraries-L] Pulp Magazines: Question re: Best Practices

[Leslie Kay Swigart]

Since the 4th of January when Hal first asked this question we have more 
than doubled our membership on SFFLibraries-L, so I will repeat his 
question (below), and also ask if anyone knows of knowledgeable pulp 
magazine collectors (private or institutional) of whom we might ask this 
question? Who should be invited to join in the SFFLibraries-L conversation?

Thanks!
Leslie

Hello,

     I am interested in what the prevailing "best practice" for pulp
magazine perservation is at the beginning of 2006.  

     Our pulps are always in need of the best possible protection. 
What have the various libraries established as the optimum storage and
protection option for pulp magazines?
