Let’s explore some examples of what mold looks like - and what it doesn’t look like. There are two sections: 1. There's a Fungus Among Us – images of mold growth show how varied mold can be in a library context. 2. Looks Alarming But Isn't – images of some other conditions found in books, such as stains without mold growth, dust stains, foxing, and other reactions between the acids in some papers and the adhesives used to construct a book. |
