To remove mold smell from books, you can try placing them in a well-ventilated area with baking soda or activated charcoal to absorb the odor. You can also gently wipe the covers and pages with a cloth dampened with a mixture of water and white vinegar. It's important to ensure the books are completely dry before returning them to shelves.

∙ 14y agoPut used tumble dryer sheets (like Bounce or any other supermarket brand) in between some of the pages of the books, i heard this tip on the programme 'how clean is your house'. But make sure they are used so the book pages don't get damaged by the chemicals used in the sheets. Hope this helps.

If your problem is just a lingering mold smell (and spores that are trapped in the fabric) then I would suggest using an ozone generator or finding a dry cleaner that uses ozone for such things.Ozone is going to break down the mold smell, but it is also going to destroy the mold spores which prevents them from turning into active mold growth in the future.You can rent ozone generators... looks like the top google result for "ozone generator rental" eventually leads here: http://www.ozonesolutions.comIf instead you already do have mold actively growing on the cloth (might be worth a close inspection) then you will almost certainly need to have a professional look at it.
