GEN: need help with water damage

[Janice Ziglin <janicez@EXECPC.COM>]

Dear all,
We had storms in the Milwaukee area over the week-end and apparently a strong
wind blew the roof off my school library.  The principal called this morning
to let me know.  I'll see it tomorrow.  Apparently the books along the outer
wall may be all right but the books (and computers) in the middle of the LMC
got pretty wet.  (this is my very extensive reference collection.)  I tried
looking in the archives but I couldn't find anything.  Can anything be done to
save wet books? damp books? especially when there are so many.  I wanted to
weed some of these but not this way.  What a way to end the year.

If anyone has any helpful hints I would greatly appreciate it.  Thanks.
