Join us for a Bookbinding Workshop in Nottingham on 1 May 2025 to mark the launch of the project "Fiction Under Cover: Rebinding Nabokov’s Books" (further details to follow). The University of Nottingham, in collaboration with our partners Designer Bookbinders and the Nottingham Central Library, is running a bookbinding workshop with Glenn Malkin, award winning professional binder, and Fellow of Designer Bookbinders. No previous knowledge of bookbinding required.
We’re running the same workshop twice on the same day at the Nottingham Central Library, 1 Carrington St., Nottingham NG1 7FH.
The subsidized cost is £8 towards materials. Please register on Eventbrite via the links above. For all further questions, please contact Siggy Frank (siggy.frank@nottingham.ac.uk).
The paper-covered sewn binding, also known as a limp paper binding, is ideal for beginners to bookbinding. During this two-hour workshop we shall be using pre-prepared materials to put together this attractive and useful book, sewing the pages together and applying the decorative paper covers. All materials and necessary tools will be provided along with handout notes for you to take away. This is a book you could easily make at home with simple materials and basic tools.
