My lab, and that of my colleague Steven Villereal, the Library's Audio-Visual Conservator, were featured on the University's "UVa Today" website. We're delighted with the opportunity to share what we do behind the scenes with the broader University community. I was particularly pleased with the way the writer drew a parallel between what Steven and I do despite the differences in the materials we work with. Conservation is just as much about research, decision making and ethics as it is about torn paper or warped film.
The media department also did a separate video of me talking about my research into the Library's copy of Micrographia, although I wish there was more footage of the book instead of my "talking head".
Enjoy!
