Professionals listed in the guide offer services related to the following specialties: books and paper, photographic materials, objects, paintings, architecture, wooden artifacts, and textiles. Services provided range from examination, treatment, analysis, disaster planning and recovery, pest control, storage and exhibition design, to teaching and training.
