Come make your own softcover notebooks at the Text & conText Lab!

Learn how to make a 3-hole pamphlet, a dos-à-dos notebook, and a concertina book with sewn pamphlets. These three basic structures are extremely versatile and allow for an infinite number of variations. 

This workshop is ideal for a first initiation to bookbinding and paper engineering. It is also designed to encourage you to improvise and create your own versions of these three elegant yet playful structures. 

Space is limited: pre-registration required: see website link at left.

All materials provided. Facilitated by Anaïs Grateau, Archives & Special Collections Preservation Coordinator, University Library System.
