I went searching for some answers about safely preserving photos, text documents and newspapers. I know that acid free and lignon free products are the way to go, but knew there was more detailed info on the net. Here is just one such info document. Document and Photo Preservation FAQ ~ by Linda L. Beyea ~ http://loricase.com/faq.html I found this on Cyndi's List ~ http://www.cyndislist.com/photos.htm#Preservation where there is a lot more info.
