There was a good NYT article on book care this weekend:
Floods, Fires and Humidity: How Climate Change Affects Book Preservation.
As extreme weather events become more common, archivists and conservators are scrambling to protect their collections.
The article wasn't very in depth but it did touch on the problem and offered a couple of solutions. I took a graduate class through ICCROM years ago about disaster preparedness in GLAM that offered tips as well.
