Athenaeum Music & Arts Library

Dominic Riley studied bookbinding at the London College of Printing, and has worked in binderies in London, New York, San Francisco and for the last six years in the Lake District in England. He is a founder member of the bookbinding program at the San Francisco Center for the Book, where he teaches every summer. He also travels across the US teaching bookbinding. He is a past president of the Hand Bookbinders of California, and is currently Vice-Chairman of the Society of Bookbinders, and a Licentiate of Designer Bookbinders, the two UK based societies devoted to promoting the craft. His Design Bindings are held in many private and public collections, and he has won over a dozen awards in the last five years for his bindings.


The Eighth Annual Edible Book Tea
UCSD Geisel Library, Seuss Room
April 1, 2007 2:00-4:00 p.m.
FREE

The Edible Book Tea is just around the corner and to make it a success we need three ingredients: edible books or book related items, donated items, and YOU!

Thanks to Lynda Claassen, Special Collections Librarian at UCSD, last year’s tea was a great success. All who attended had a wonderful time seeing, eating, winning, and making books. Once again, Lynda has generously extended a welcome to SDBA and the Edible Book Tea. Please join us in the Seuss Room in UCSD’s Geisel Library and help make this year’s event truly special.
