Hi Rachel,
    I know you're asking for a source for finished structures to use for reference, but I thought these titles would also be helpful if you don't have them in your collection, since they offer detailed diagrams:
1. Paper folding for pop-up / Miyuki Yoshida
2. Pocket paper engineer : how to make pop-ups step-by-step / Carol Barton
3. Cover to cover: creative techniques for making beautiful books, journals, &n albums
4. Creating handmade books / Alisa Golden
5. The Penland book of handmade books

Best,
Ellie

Good morning.

Do any of you have a good source for blank artist book structures?

A large number of MassArt students make artists' books during the spring semester. We're delighted to have so many students come into the library to look at our collection. However, to lessen the wear and tear on our collection I would love to have book dummies for these students to use to see how various bindings and forms are created.

Since I'm so late in doing this research, I would prefer to purchase an already made collection of structures if any of you know of such a thing, but commissioning samples is also a possibility.

Thanks so much,
Rachel
