The ancient books of the library are old, moldy, mealworm bite, and sticky wrinkles. These ancient books all require a little repairist to "make up". The Library's Ancient Books Room is one of the few professional ancient book restoration rooms in Guangxi, established in 2005. "The restoration of ancient books is a job that requires a lot of patience, time, and technology. We can only repair a few pages of books a day." Restoration teachers Liang Chunxia and He Bing said that they had been engaged in the restoration of ancient books for 9 and 11 years respectively.

The process of restoring an ancient book is complicated. First of all, it is necessary to take photos and archive, record the existing diseases of the ancient book, and formulate corresponding restoration plans. Then perform page tearing, numbering, and optional patching. The Ming and Qing dynasties papers are now very difficult to find. Dyeing antique papers are commonly used, or traditional hand-made paper craftsmen are specially used to make them according to the recipe of ancient books.

Because many pages of ancient books have been acidified, acid removal is a work that must be done before repairing. Spray a specially-configured potion on the pages and let them dry for a few days to complete. Some ancient books are broken into pieces by worms. The smallest piece is less than a centimeter. It is difficult to find its original position in the book. If the piece cannot be repaired, it must be included with the school bag to allow future generations of better technology to repair it.

When restoring the pages of ancient books, first put the new paper gently on the damaged area, lightly dip the special paste with a brush and press it, and at the same time gently wipe off the remaining paste residue with a wet towel. For every seemingly simple work step, the repairer must always concentrate on it, because a little carelessness will cause secondary damage to the ancient books. "When I was studying the restoration of ancient books, the teacher told me that when you are grumpy and in a bad mood, you should stop working and take a break." Liang Chunxia said.

After dozens of processes such as wetting and flattening, folding, hammering, compacting, aligning, punching, piercing, binding, binding, etc., an ancient book is considered to be repaired as usual. "Book flatness" is the basic requirement for restoration. The city library did not have a book press before. It needed to hold the book with a slate for a month to flatten the book. Now it only takes two days to have a book press.

Most of the procedures for restoring ancient books are done manually, and the tools used are also very simple, such as hammers, brushes, row sweepers, tweezers, and awls. When encountering extremely dirty ancient books, the repairer must also bring a mask. Due to the slow work and hard work, the restorers of the city library have only a dozen or twenty ancient books restored in one year.

The birth of the production book scanner made this problem immediately solved. The lens-first design eliminates the need to disassemble files and generates electronic images while ensuring that precious originals are not damaged. It is as perfect as ever and is suitable for professional ancient books to electronically capture document images quickly and effectively.
