Biblio Tech<\/em>, issued in a clamshell box<\/p><\/div>\n

As someone with both a professional and personal\u00a0interest in book arts and bookbinding, one of my favorite items found in Special Collections is Biblio Tech: Reverse Engineering Historical and Modern Binding Structures with a Focus on Board Attachment<\/i> by Karen Hanmer.<\/p>\n

\"Example<\/a>

Biblio Tech<\/i> is a set of bindings that first began as a project for a series of workshops on board and case attachment for book artists who were primarily printmakers. In the set of bindings, Hanmer \u201cmodels numerous structures, all left uncovered and only partially completed so methods of board attachment, sewing, spine lining, and endsheet construction remained visible.\u201d Biblio Tech is a fantastic resource for anyone interested in the books arts and bookbinding techniques.<\/p>\n

\"Boarded<\/a>

Biblio Tech<\/em> includes examples of twelve different binding techniques including simplified binding, non-adhesive paper case, sewn boards, split board, German case, leather fine binding, scaleboard, boarded binding, crossed structure, tacketed, Medieval, and Ethiopian binding. The binding examples utilize various papers, boards, leather and sewing supports. Each model measures approximately 13 x 9 x 1 cm. The set also includes a 45 page illustrated booklet outlining key structural features of each binding and providing numerous references for further study.<\/p>\n
