According to Joe Callahan, chairman of the Scrapbook Preservation Society, bare metals on scrapbooks, like wires used as embellishments, can corrode and turn to oxides; cover any exposed metals and trim wire ends that can puncture or scratch any adjacent items.
Metals should be separate from paper, and if you have an object like a dog tag, make sure it isn't placed directly opposite original photos or documents that can be harmed.
