Strengthening Structures with Bookboard

Monday, November 18th, 2024

5:300 PM - 9:00 PM

There are several instances where rebinding a paperback into hardcovers is advantageous. Before you go about fixing something of value, join us for a workshop to learn the process before tackling your own!

In this workshop, we’ll go over the process of re-casing paperback texts with options for utilizing the original cover. This will add many years of life onto the works you wish to preserve.

Bookbinding is great but it’s even better with a friend- Sign up together and you each save $15!
