I need to get my photos in albums but before I do what do I need do to protect from humidity and mold?


Plastic pages? glue to page?


Thanks

- Unless you use the plastic pocket method, get albums with acid-free paper.

- Get double-sided tape specifically made for photos. This typically comes in a small dispenser.

- Store the albums in a cabinet and put one or more dehumidifying "tubs" (buy at the supermarket) in with them. These absorb humidity and keep the albums free of humidity. Make sure you change the tubs as they fill up.

- Ideally, have the cabinet in a room with a dehumidifier and not in a room where you have the windows open all the time.


BTW the tubs should also be used for your clothing.
