- Protecting Libraries for Lifelong Learning. Loveland, Erma Jean Archives College Libraries Higher Education Library Collections Library Materials Lighting Paper (Material) Preservation Radiation A study of methods for protecting the special collection at the University of Abilene (Texas) from fading and deterioration caused by ultraviolet (UV) rays showed that fluorescent light filters did not correct the problem.

A second choice is to use tungsten lighting, and a third is to use filters to keep the lux meter reading of ultraviolet rays between 60 and 80. (4 references) (KRN)
