ANyone know of any links regarding Book conservation and repair? possibly supplies (glue, deacidification sprays etc)??

I spent quite some time googling and came up with nothing.

I've recently obtained some 50 plus year old paperbacks that with minor repair would be a nice addition to my book collection, but on some the spine glue has hardened and the pages are loose.

I would drive by this place every day going to grade school and my Grandmother on Sundays.
