What can I do for one of my Family History books that the pages came loose and fall out? They seem to have been glued in by the printer. At the price I paid for the book the pages shouldn't be coming out. Thanks for any help. Lois
There are a couple of tricks you might try, but I would call my local library to see if they have any ideas. Also, you might try a local Family History Center if you live in or close to a large city. The only problem with using glues is that they are not "archival" in form so the edges of your pages might eventually come loose again or break off. However, if you have one of those small glue guns which use "cool" glue, you can put a fine bead of glue down the inside "spine" and then put your page in. Another type of glue which can be used is "crafter's" glue which is designed to hold firmly but be flexible---such as those used for holding "jewels" on T-shirts, etc. I use this kind of glue for all types of repairs because it does "give" when dry but still holds. You might also contact the firm you ordered the book from and ask for a replacement.
