Very interesting video and great that it is available online. Too bad they say that they make original documents accessible for handling by the public, whereas museums and archives do not. It's a shame that such a large institution is propagating this stereotype that only libraries are accessible.

Thought this 5 minute video might interest those of you who wonder what 
conservators do behind the scenes.
