Résumé:

[This publication introduces] time-weighted preservation index (TWPI) technology. TWPI provides a method for measuring and quantifying the effects of temperature and humidity on the preservation quality of storage environments for organic materials. The purpose is to make it easier to manage the preservation of library and archives collections by revealing the long-term effects of storage environments on the deterioration of organic materials. Awareness of environmental effects is the basis for a program of cost-effective improvements. --Publisher description.
