Hands-on Book Repair-Columbus, OH

This workshop is designed for general, circulating collections in public and
small academic or special libraries. The approach will be to teach methods
for repairing books with less damaging techniques, as a building block
toward "archival quality" or "preservation oriented" collection maintenance.
Attendees will learn about the structure of a book, which books should be
sent to the bindery and which books can be repaired at the library.
