Subject: [ARLIS-L] where to study book making

Dear Colleagues,

I am gathering recommendations on good places/colleges/universities to study book making (artists' books). 

The University of Wisconsin-Madison has generated many fine book artists over the past thirty years and continues to offer a few courses in this area.  I know that the University of the Arts in Philadelphia has a very active program in book arts. 

Many of us have wonderful artists' book collections in our libraries, but where are the best places to learn/study this art form?

This may be of interest to others, so please reply to the arlis-l list. 

Thanks!

--Lyn
