Book Arts at SUL:
RESOURCES
These pages are designed as a resource for students in the College of
Visual and Performing Arts' School of Art and Design studying "the
book" as a concept and structure and support presentations done for
students, primarily in the Foundation Program.
Resources include images of examples from the collection of the Special
Collections Research Center, "canned" subject searches of the
Library's catalog, and a listing of examples elsewhere sorted by structure.
