Welcome to the new University of Edinburgh’s conservation blog. This post will be the first of many, keeping you up-to-date with all the interesting and exciting aspects of the conservation work going on throughout the University’s rare and unique collections. Our next blog will come courtesy of Erika Freyr, who (without revealing too many spoilers) is coming to the end of the her 10-week internship in our conservation department working on the University’s historically important Laing Collection.
