    Sorry we don't wear gloves in archives and rare book libraries. That's fake. You can damage the books that way. Clean hands is all you need. But don't touch illustrations! #publicserviceannouncementhttps://twitter.com/SoBeChic99/status/1115095689615298562 …

        @DebHarkness is 💯 right. No gloves in the archives (unless you are using unmylared photos, metal objects or art prints). Clean hands!

        Oh! Interesting, I thought oils damaged pages. Always learning from you.

        Very common misconception. We blame it on tv.

        That's how the research library at my local historical society does it. They only have patrons wear gloves when handling photos and occasionally old newspapers, for the ink in the pages

        They make you fumble. You have less dexterity. They can cause your fingers to slip on fragile paper, causing tears and breakage. It's just not necessary.
