Often called Dartmouth’s best-kept secret, the Book Arts Workshop in Baker Library is celebrating its 25th anniversary. Created in 1989-1990 by Edward Connery Lathem '51, Rocky Stinehour '50, and Mark Lansburgh '49, three former students of Professor Emeritus Ray Nash, the studio is located in the former location of Nash’s Graphic Arts Program, Baker Library Room 21-23. From its early beginnings of letterpress instruction the workshop has grown to include book binding and curricular support of the arts of the book.  

Learn about the history of the Book Arts Workshop through this beautiful exhibition in Baker Main Hall.

Curated by Barbara R. Sagraves, Preservation Services, and Sarah Smith, Book Arts Workshop. Designed by Dennis Grady, Library Education & Outreach. Materials preparation by Pat Cope and Phyllis Gilbert, Rauner Special Collections Library, and Deborah Howe and Stephanie Wolff, Preservation Services.  Special thanks to Jay Satterfield, Rauner Special Collections Library, and Jeff Horrell, Dartmouth College Library, for their invaluable suggestions.
