Beschreibung:
Nepal is home to exceptionally diverse manuscript collections, both in terms of scripts and languages as well as materials used. In this new video series, Bidur Bhattarai explains how these collections are preserved. The fourth episode presents the techniques used for cleaning and wrapping the manuscripts, how to prepare an acid-free customised E-Flute phase box (‘archival box’), and the long-term strategies for manuscript archiving.
