Yes, invest in some poly sleeves. your local record store should have them or you can do mail order through the web.

also, if you have deteriorating inner sl;eeves, and you want to keep them with the album, get some paper sleeves for the record itself.

you can buy inexpensive cardboard 7" single boxes that hold around 200 each.

always store the records upright, not flat on each other. the weight builds up and will warp your albums. keep them vertical an you should never hae that problem.

you can get an inexpensie nylon microfiber brush to wipe the dust from yr records, and you can get a lint free towel and some diluted isopropyl lcholo and wipe the albums down if grimey.

never vere touch the grooves. use the labels, that is what they are there for. hold yr albums by the edge and the label.

keep away from heat. heat will cause the vinyl to dry out and will create a crackle, which is noticeable on old albums you may have bought from a used seller or garage sale.
