Hello everyone.  I'm both an MLS student at Syracuse and an instructional
aid in an elementary library in Central Virginia.  We discovered today that
the 15,000+ books in our library are coated in mildew, hopefully, mostly on
the covers.  It seems the carpet wasn't properly extracted when it was
steam-cleaned this summer and the mildew has taken over.  Has anyone else
had this problem or do you know of a solution other than time and handling?
We really don't want to discard and don't have the budget to replace such a
large collection.  Help?
