Paper/Book Conservation
Some of the main projects that I worked on were the treatments of historic ledgers. I mended and rebound one volume, as well as making a facsimile that could go on exhibit. Other small mending treatments were also performed.

Collection Storage Survey
I completed a survey of one of the glass and ceramics storage areas to take an inventory as well as determine what space was needed for further acquisitions.
