With time and resources, patience and commitment, and drawing on their expert skills and knowledge, the National Library and the National Archives will build the new Library and Archives of Canada: a vibrant, vital institution where Canadians can discover, understand and appreciate their history, culture and heritage, and help to shape the Canada of tomorrow.

 Cranberry firm uses revolutionary process to preserve precious paper
Comic books entered the picture in 2002, when the Library of Congress began searching for a better way to house and preserve its comics, which were stacked in boxes in cramped conditions.
The Library of Congress preservationists spent more than 20 years unsuccessfully searching for a method that would safely neutralize the acid in paper before they learned that Richard Spatz, a former division head for Pittsburgh-based Koppers Co., held the patent for a promising mass deacidification process.
Because comics are printed on highly acidic wood pulp paper, similar to newspapers, even the utmost of care won't arrest their eventual decay, he said, and other preservation methods don't work well for comics.
