#AskAnArchivist What’s the oldest item in the research library?

A 3 vol. set of books published in 1784 - "A voyage to the Pacific Ocean : undertaken, by the command of His Majesty, for making discoveries in the Northern Hemisphere ..." / Written by Captain James Cook, F.R.S.

[LA Maritime Museum @LAMaritime]

#AskAnArchivist Is this book moldy?
No! The light brown spots often found inside old books is called Foxing. While almost impossible to remove without damaging the pages, it is not harmful. It's the result of the oxidation of impurities in the paper exacerbated by high humidity.

[American Merchant Marine Veterans, Inc. (AMMV) @AMMWWII]

Though the U.S. Merchant Marine is a civilian organization, it’s often called “the forgotten service” in the context of the Second World War, reflecting their tremendous contribution to the war effort and the great personal danger merchant mariners faced. https://t.co/WcsUFRxbTb
