Is there a safe way to remove an adhesive inventory sticker from a board cover? The book I purchased secondhand comkes with two on the cover, and they were stuck on the cardboard, not buckram.

There are already several threads on this subject in Book Talk as well as in this very group. Do a search of key terms and click on Talk.

My solution is lighter fluid. I often also score the sticker lightly with an exacto to allow hte solvent access to sink in. Soak the sticker once and let it sit. After a few minutes soak it again and peel carefully with thumbnail. Work in a ventilated area and wash hands afterwards.
