I’m a high school Latin teacher & self-funding my PhD research because neither UK nor US fund part-time online. My son (19) is in college now & I dream we can graduate at the same time, since I waited so long. Your generosity is appreciated. The muses will sing your praises 🤗

Does anyone have suggestions how to fix a good book whose glue is gone? I literally don’t know what kind of glue to put, and where to get it from.
