Haunted Conservation Lab!

Ever wonder what goes on in the bowels of Sibley Music Library’s Conservation Department?

This Thursday afternoon, October 29th, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm, the Sibley Conservation Department staff will hold an open house exposing the unspeakable horrors to which the library’s innocent scores and books are subjected in the name of Conservation.

Come to Room 305 in the Sibley Music Library. You will never look at a preservation photocopy the same way again.
