"We are often asked why our book conservators and librarians don’t wear
gloves when handling rare or fragile books. This question is
understandable given the iconic imagery in film and television of rare
book curators wearing gleaming white gloves to hand over priceless
artifacts. But the answer is very simple: it is better for the books!"
