The main objective of the project was to find a solution to exterminate mould with a substance and method harmless to men and books. This would be beneficial for all European users of archival material. The Archives of the Protestant Parish of the Holy Trinity in Świdnica (PL) were chosen as the representative material for the research within the project.
