Book Conservation & Repair

Early twentieth century book titled Bills Manual needing book repair
The same book as seen before needing repair, but shown here as repaired

Book conservation and repair requires a knowledge of how books have been constructed spanning nearly a thousand years. At Paper Leaf Bindery, we have made a study of these methods and often demonstrate bookbinding at medieval, renaissance, and colonial fairs.

Have a book that requires conservation, preservation, or repair? We would love to assist you!
