“We were facing water damage and potential mold on an irreplaceable collection of bound print journals dating back to the early and mid 1900s. Without intervention, we would have been forced to dispose of these materials, which would have been a tremendous loss to our institution and the communities that rely on them. With Polygon’s help, we were able to preserve the collection and maintain access to rare medical journals…where the true value lies not in the physical items themselves, but in the knowledge they contain.”
