<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Apologies for any repeated information here but this is my standard advice on the issue of gloves in libraries and archives:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Often, clean and dry hands are sufficient however there are several instances where gloves are required for the safety of
the collection material and/or the safety of the researcher. In general, I recommend gloves always be worn when handling any of the following material:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;margin-left:.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Photographic material – photographic chemistry is very delicate and the oils from your hands (even very clean hands) can be detrimental to the long-term stability
of the material. Note that many technical drawings and maps are often copies derived from photographic processes even though they may not appear to be traditional photographs (e.g. cyanotypes or blueprints, diazotypes, etc.)<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;margin-left:.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Rare or damaged leather or parchment bindings – these materials can get flaky with age and gloves will help to protect them. Additionally, some 19<sup>th</sup>
century leathers were poorly processed and may suffer from a condition known as ‘red rot’ – the chemical breakdown of the leather to a powder-like state. Wearing gloves in these instances is safer and cleaner for the researcher as much as it is protective
for the book.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;margin-left:.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Metal materials – such as photographs encased in metal and wooden cases. All metals will erode in the presence of the oils that occur naturally on human hands
therefore gloves should always be worn while handling metals. Note that cotton gloves will be very slippery against a metal surface.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;margin-left:.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Material that has been previously affected by mould – generally any material with active mould should be restricted to a fume hood until it can be treated
for safe use. After treatment, mould can still be a future issue therefore it is always recommended that users wear gloves while handling this material and that they resist the urge to touch their face while wearing these gloves.<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Many institutions require their patrons to wear gloves at all times to avoid confusion. In terms of which gloves to provide
for your patrons, nitrile gloves are usually preferable as they leave your fingertips more tactile. Cotton gloves are generally more comfortable and easy to clean and reuse however they do not provide any protection to the wearer against mould and they don’t
always provide adequate grip, leading to an increased likelihood of drops. Some cotton gloves have plastic grips added to them however these grip pads/ dots are often made of unstable plastics and rubbers that degrade and leave harmful residues on collection
material. These gloves should be avoided. If you’re ever in doubt on the glove issue, err on the side of caution and glove up.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
