| | Bookbinding - definition of Bookbinding in Encyclopedia |
 | | The craft of bookbinding may have originated around the 1st century A.D. Romans of the time created a form of simple book called a codex by folding sheets of papyrus in half and sewing them through the fold. | | | Since early books were exclusively handwritten on handmade materials, sizes and styles varied considerably, and each book was a unique creation. | | | When rebinding a sewn book, one usually turns it into a hardbound book by adding hard covers. |

| | The theme of the first such venture is book restoration as we felt that was the topic which would be of most interest to the majority of amateur bookbinders. | | | With the encouragement of J. Hewit & Sons, we have put together this book restoration weekend, which we hope will be the first in a series of weekend demonstrations on a variety of aspects of bookbinding at this and other venues. | | | He enjoys working alone but also gains satisfaction from the whole cycle of meeting the customer, discussing the work entailed, carrying it out then returning the finished book to its owner. |

| | Douglas W. Jones on Bookbinding |
| | This tutorial on bookbinding is oriented towards the preservation of the contents of decaying pulp paperbacks; the first step in this process involves photocopying the decaying book, but most of this applies equally well to making up limited editions based on photocopies of manuscript pages or typewritten material | | | Assuming you are starting with a decaying paperback, you should ask if you really want to destroy the original! | | | Bookbinding, the art of sewing pages into a cover to make a book, can serve many purposes. |
