    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&lt;p&gt;The first issue of the series &lt;em&gt;Written Artefacts as Cultural Heritage &lt;/em&gt;is a practical guide to manuscript surface cleaning and the making of archival boxes. This step-by-step manual is the result of hands-on workshops on preservation measures held in Kathmandu, Nepal as part of CSMC&amp;rsquo;s project &amp;lsquo;Safeguarding the Manuscripts in Nepal&amp;rsquo;. The overwhelming demand for continuous professional assistance in the daily work of taking care of collections in archives and libraries led the leaders of these workshops, Michaelle Biddle and Bidur Bhattarai, to compose this manual. Although based on experiences in Nepal, this guide provides knowledge and skills that equally apply to preservation efforts in other regions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The series&lt;em&gt; Written Artefacts as Cultural Heritage&lt;/em&gt; was established in 2020. The series is dedicated to the double role of written artefacts as representations and generators of humankind&amp;rsquo;s cultural heritage. Its thematic scope embraces aspects of preservation, the identity-defining role of artefacts as well as ethical questions. The mix of practical guides, colloquium papers and project reports is specifically intended for staff at libraries and archives, curators at museums and art galleries, and scholars working in the fields of manuscript cultures and heritage studies.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
