The College Book
Art Association welcomes the submission of paper proposals for its second
biennial Conference to be held on the campus of Indiana University,
Bloomington. The conference will provide students, scholars, librarians, and
faculty with a public forum to discuss topics in and related to book arts
education.
The College Book
Art Association is a non-profit organization committed to the teaching of book
arts at the college and university level. The Association strives to support,
not only education about book arts, but is also concerned with both the
practice and analysis of the medium. It welcomes as members everyone involved
in such teaching and all others who have similar goals and interests. The
Association aims to engage in a continuing reappraisal of the nature and
meaning of the teaching of book arts.
