INSTRUCTIONS FOR FREEZING
Freezing is not recomended
The recomended method is Vacuum Freeze Drying
Make arrangements for freezing as soon as you know you will
need to freeze materials. They will need to know approximately how many
containers there will be and when you will be bringing them over. The
telephone numbers and contact persons are listed under the vendors page.
Removal
1. Clear the floors and aisles first.
2. Begin with the wettest materials, probably those on the lowest
shelves, unless water came through the ceiling.
3. Dirt (see Muddy Volumes) should be removed before freezing. If time
does not permit this, muddy books may be frozen -- mud will easily brush
off when it is dry. Silt should be washed out immediately, as it is
almost impossible to remove when it is dry.
4. Pack materials on-site if possible. If not possible, remove by
human chain.
5. Keep accurate records of the locations from which materials are
removed.
