Preservation And Conservation of Library Materials As Reflected Through Library And Information Science Abstract (1971-2009): A Review Work

Abstract

The concept of preservation is included with the maintenance of libraries and archives since ancient times. Libraries need to preserve its collection in order to protect and preserve the history and culture of a nation for the posterity. Preservation is considered as the fundamental and an important task of the libraries. Traditionally some organic and natural methods were used to keep the books and other materials physically usable for a long time by slowing down or preventing their decay. Then we developed a more advanced way of preserving the materials in digital format. Though digital preservation needs constant attention still it is a long-term storage of information. This study is a review work from the Library and Information Science Abstract [LISA]. The study aims to know about the various traditional and digital methods of preservation and to identify the principal language of the research works and the journal in which maximum works were done.
