Workshop on paper preservation for summer interns

This summer, the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Archives continues its commitment to promoting cultural heritage preservation by organizing a workshop on paper preservation and Chinese bookbinding for this year's summer interns! Under the guidance of the Archives staff, the interns learned how to make Chinese books and document boxes, as well as the techniques of making glue and removing tape. Through this day-long immersive experience, the two students not only gained an understanding of the various causes of damage to paper documents but also recognized the importance of proper handling of paper and books.

This workshop not only enhanced their awareness of paper maintenance but also sparked their interest in this professional field.
