Registration for this event is limited to 15 individuals, and only one registration per organization. Preference will be given to Governing and HRVH members of Southeastern.

Visit the conservation workshop at Vassar College for a demonstration on how to cover materials and the main techniques for text block repair, hinge repair, and two methods of spine replacement on mostly cloth-covered books, with opportunities to practice on Vassar books.

If time allows, we will also cover creating a four-flap enclosure for books that are difficult to repair.

Please bring one item from your collection that you would like to work on.

This event is free for all Southeastern members and affiliate members.
