The Objects of our Affection - October 26, 2024
“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! — When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.” ~ Caroline Bingley, Pride and Prejudice
Librarian Jamie Wood will give a presentation on the history of the book and bookmaking. She will also talk about how the book is studied as an object today, and show us how she does book repairs and binding.
She will follow her presentation with a demo on how to make an easy notepad with Japanese-style binding, and participants will have the opportunity to make one!
All supplies will be provided.
Registration: 10:15 am
Meeting: 10:30 – 1:30 pm (including shared lunch)
$5 entry (first time guests are free)
**Remember to bring some finger food for our shared lunch!**
