The Craft of the Book--TONIGHT!
Interested in learning how books were made during the hand-press era? If so, please join me at the Library this evening for an illustrated history of the craftsmanship of paper making, printing, and bookbinding. I’ll be gathering some how-to books on book arts from our collections to share with you too, to help you get started making books.
There's no need to register, and it’s a free class—here are the details:
Wednesday June 10th, 6:00 to 7:00pm (classroom will open at 5:45pm)
New York Public Library Celeste Bartos Education Center
First Floor, South Court Classrooms Stephen A. Schwarzman Building
Fifth Avenue & 42nd Street
One last note: I'll teach this class two more times this summer (at 2:00pm on July 25th, and at 2:00pm on August 22nd), so please mark your calendars for one of these dates if you are interested but can't come this evening.

Hi Jessica,
I really enjoyed your class tonight about the history of bookmaking. Very informative!
Would it be possible to get a copy of your PowerPoint?
Thanks,
'tine
