Definitions absorbant, acid free, archival, book materials, paper 11:33 am
With a new year, it’s a good time to start over and run the definitions A-Z. This doesn’t mean that if new lingo comes to light before the review is over that we won’t throw it in!
Absorbent Paper (see Paper): Covering a variety of papers made for absorbing water and inks (degrees vary). Examples: duplicating, filter, blotting and toweling papers.
*Acid Free Books (see Archival): The use of this term varies from the logical definition of the individual words to a wide variety of standards – always have a company explain their definition. An acid free book depend on internal (book materials) and external factors (chemical processes, environment, etc.). See Also Archival webpage.
