Visiting Book Artists

Throughout the year, book artists from different disciplines are invited to the campus to conduct workshops, to give lectures, demonstrations, and presentations, and to share their passion for books with students. Book artists who have recently visited CSB/SJU include Mary Hark, Jana Pullman, Regula Russelle, and C.B. Sherlock. |

Papermaking

Bookbinding

| Students in several classes have the opportunity to make books using resources of the Book Arts Studio. In addition, there are occasional workshops offered in bookbinding techniques, such as a Saturday workshop on making a longstitch binding journal offered by the Library. |
