Craig Fansler- I am the Preservation Librarian at ZSR Library of Wake Forest University. I holds an MLIS from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, a Master of Science in Management from Troy University and a Bachelor of Arts in Art History from East Carolina University. I have restored books and built protective enclosures for archival materials for 28 years. I am currently involved professionally with the Guild of Book Workers and the North Carolina Preservation Consortium. I frequently teach book repair workshops across North Carolina for the North Carolina State Library.
