Event: How to Make a Book

Tuesday, November 14, 2017

12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

129 Center for Digital Scholarship

Workshop Overview

This hands-on workshop will demonstrate and provide opportunities to bind books using any one of three different techniques: using a machine to do coil binding, using a machine to do adhesive binding, or making a book with a "slot & tab" method and absolutely no tools, only paper. The first two techniques are useful and functional when you may want to bring together sets of printed documents: articles, Web pages, ebooks, etc. The "slot & tab" technique is useful for personal notebooks and when you need a book (of just about any size) but in a hurry.

Come to this workshop and learn how printing and making books is a good thing, even in a era of all things digital.
