The glass blocks the UV-B rays, and you can put special film on the glass to block UV-A. (many of the auto-window films block both UV-A & UV-B) The type & thickness of curtain fabric must also affect how much of what UV gets through. Sorry, I can't find any sources citing fabrics.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.
