In her chapter on repairing fans, Nancy Armstrong in "The Books of Fans" lists Durofix, Evostik, Cascamite, Aerolite, Copydex, Araldite, Calaton, Cellofas and pastes such as Gripfix, as suitable adhesives either for repairing or attaching paper fan leaves to sticks.
For lace fans, she suggests stitching the lace to the sticks with invisible thread and beading needles, working from the centre out, and sticking the lace to the guard sticks with Evostick Clear. Glad to hear that most of you have received your copies of 'Lace' with the polar grid in. I'm the one who wanted it, and I haven't received mine yet.
