In this episode we explore a truly unexpected heritage-risk story: the Poison Book Project, where conservators discovered that beautiful emerald-green book cloths from the 19th century were hiding arsenic-based pigments. We trace how a routine conservation observation at Winterthur led to global cataloguing, how the chemistry works, how libraries are responding—and what this means for the next time you pick up a vintage book. If you thought books were safe, think again. Tease alert: we’ll also share the hopeful side of how knowledge safeguards our cultural heritage. The internet says it’s true. Then we chat with Keynote Speaker, Leadership Trainer and Musician, Jason LeVasseur.
