Once you have your saturated book up on end you are going to notice of course that there
is space in between the covers and the wet pages. In this space we are going to put some
paper towels, this will allow even more water to be absorbed, you just want to kind of slide
that in there and you want it to go all the way down to the bottom and you probably should
have a little bit hanging over the edge and the top. This isn't for any particular reason
other than it gives you something to hold on to and will allow for a little bit more
absorption. Once the pages start to become a little bit drier then you can have more
paper towels in there but for now because of the fragility of the pages that are soaking
wet, the only place that you can really have any paper towels is on edges where it is easy
to slip it in there. So you want to have the pages in here and of course once they start
getting wet you are going to take them out and replace them with dry pages.
