I am not sure if you all saw this publication made by Gloria Maris recently:
Deterioration of Shell Collections - Causes, consequence and treatment by R.

influence of humidity and lots more.
I got several issues for sale to my customers, and if you wish you may order
directly from the Belgian Society for Conchology with David Monsecour
