What is a conservation binding—is there any such thing? Should we be rebinding books? What can we learn from rebindings of the past?
What is a conservation binding—is there any such thing? Should we be rebinding books? What can we learn from rebindings of the past?
This online talk provides the foundational principles behind Sonja’s in-person class on soft paper bindings on May 26. Sonja will explore the history of the idea of the conservation binding and its features, what to consider in making the decision to rebind, and potential of the soft paper binding to serve as an appropriate structure for this purpose.
Participants in the class have automatic tickets to the talk and do not need to register for it directly, but this way those of you too far away for the class can also catch some of the content.
The talk will be recorded and available for 48 hours so that anyone not available to attend live can catch up at a more convenient time.
