I am in the process of setting up a one day bookbinding/book arts workshop for DUSLA. I'm really excited about getting my fellow librarians interested in the structures of books and how to make them as well. Unfortunately, the workshop probably won't take place until after this quarter is over, so I won't be able to include pictures on my site. I still think it's a really neat opportunity, though, so if any of you are interested in learning how to make some simple book forms, keep your eyes peeled for ads around the Rush building.
Another bookbinding event I'm excited about is a 5 day intensive Introduction to the History of Bookbinding being offered through the Rare Book School at the University of Virginia. I have heard excellent things about the Rare Book School from other professional librarians and I hope that it works out that I can attend this seminar.
