PCV glue has a long history of use as a general purpose glue. The fact that it is non toxic, (see material data safety sheet link in Advantages section) glues most craft materials such as wood, paper, leather and cardboard and is easy to apply often supplied in convenient squeeze bottles has made it a favourite for crafters everywhere. PVA glue is water soluble and cleans up easily with water. It is the standard white glue of most schools.
It certainly could be used in a protected dry area that will not be submerged but might occasionally get wet. [links]
