I have learned to be very careful of newspaper clippings. They carry the
acid that will damage anything nearby. I now photocopy all newspaper
clippings. I have used the magnetic books and the flip books for storing
photos in the past and found them both very hard on photos over time. Now I
am using the acid free sleeves with acid free corners. And copies
newspaper. I put all this in a zippered three ring binder. This way I
can put in photos or little pieces of paper with notes on it, zip it up and
it stays put until I can get to putting the next page together. Mary
