		The Sage Technique. ^Votes:0 The Sage Technique Using an InkJet printer and computer technology for embossing book spines or whole covers Developed by Lorraine Bates. Advantages: ? Spines and covers can be labelled in gold (or any other colour) at home, using cheap and available materials. ? Neat and attractive lettering is possible in a wide variety of fonts. ? Boxes, lines, decorative elements and designs can be added from your computer's clip art collection. ? The embossing technique gives an "aged" look in keeping with many of the books we repair. Drawbacks: ? Most home printers will only accept an A4 page, so unless you are doing a small book which A4 will adequately cover, you will only be able to produce a labelled spine and do a library binding on the book.

		Bookbinding Model Collection - The University of Iowa Libraries ^Votes:0 Bookbinding Model Collection University of Iowa Libraries Where did the idea come from? Bill Anthony, past Conservator of the University of Iowa Libraries, was known for his replicas or models of historical bindings. He used model making projects to teach skills of the bookbinding craft and many of his models and those of his apprentices were included in the 1985 exhibit - "The Art and Craft of Bookbinding". These models have been preserved in the Conservation lab of the UI Libraries Preservation department. One good idea leads to another and the bookbinding models produced by Bill Anthony and his apprentices now provide the core for an important new teaching resource. This is the newly established collection of Bookbinding Models at University of Iowa. With bibliographical manag Read More Go to Site
