Hey Everyone,
I recently just bought a Dehumidifier and was wondering what is the ideal humidity % for preserving my National Geographic Magazine Collection?
Thanks

35%.
"Keep books in rooms with relatively low humidity. In very hot climates, books can start to warp. Ideally, you should keep the relative humidity around 35%. Humidity causes binding to warp, paper to curl, pages to mold..."
