Question

My cousin spilled water in the middle of the book and My Uncle wants me to put it into the refrigirater. What should I do?
what will happen?

Answer 1

You should blot the pages dry and then put paper towels between the pages to help absorb the extra moisture. Beyond that there is not much you can do.

Answer 2

I agree with Cat. I also worked in a library. She gives good advice. The only thing that will happen to the book if you follow your uncles advice is a bad case of mildew
