Roger Williams
Conservation Fellow
Northwestern University Libraries
Roger presented his research project that was conducted during his two-year fellowship at Northwestern Libraries: "The Optical Clearing of Repair Tissues for the Treatment of Translucent Papers." The project explored the physical aspects of paper transparency, and investigated the concept of optical clearing (transparentizing) of repair tissues, with the goal of achieving appropriate repairs on translucent papers without dramatically increasing the opacity of treated areas.
