Everyday handling
Stable storage
Keep objects away from direct sunlight, damp areas and heat sources. Store records upright without leaning tightly against one another; keep prints flat in suitable protective sleeves.
Gentle cleaning
Use the cleaning method recommended for the actual material. Do not apply household sprays to paper, book covers or records. Ask a qualified specialist about fragile or valuable objects.
Care during travel
Keep prints between rigid supports. Protect book corners and use a sleeve suited to the record. Avoid leaving objects in a hot vehicle.
