Founded June 23, 1994, Book_Arts-L is a mailing
list based at Syracuse University, and managed by Peter Verheyen. It currently
claims almost 3000 subscribers worldwide, among them practicing bookbinders,
book-artists, marblers, papermakers, printers, collectors, curators in libraries,
and people just interested in our wide and varied field.
All members are free to post anything they feel might be of interest
to others. This has included everything from discussions such as what is a book,
to technical Q&A, to offerings of services and supplies by vendors. I do
ask that subscriber stay "on topic" with regards to the subject matter of the
list. I encourage posting notices about services related to the book arts by
vendors, exhibition notices, and advertisements of related books for sale, including
"fine press" books, especially if available in sheets.
In order to protect the privacy of subscribers, no membership
information will be made public, though the posters identity and email address
will become part of the permanent record in the list archive.
