For the poet, writer or creative person who wants to produce works of art realized in the form of a book, this course will explore methods of binding from the simple to the complex. Although the course will rely on skill building in bookmaking, it will also discuss conceptual ideas for books, how book design augments ideas and the necessity of craftsmanship. Some history of the book will be discussed as will archival materials and outlets for self-published one-of-a-kind books today. Open to the BU Community. 2.0 credits
