Hello to all, Thank for your suggestions on how to deodorize nicotine infused books. I had many replies, and I also had a lot of requests that I would share these results. Here is how respondents are fixing this problem.
Newspaper -- packed around the books in a closed container
Charcoal -- I think this is untreated, dry, charcoal rather than charcoal pre-treated with lighter fluid.
Essential oil drops on fabric
I confess I am leaning toward trying the ozone generator, cat litter, and charcoal. We have experimented with methods that introduce new smells and I have heard some complaints.
