We have a book that was donated that has the old musty smell.  It won't go
away.  We tried airing it out.  I've heard of some ideas before here.
Do ya'll have some ideas?  We've checked for mildew and there is none.
It's a worthwhile book to add to our collection.  We want to give it one
more chance to get rid of the smell.

Thanks for any suggestions.
