Abstract: | Bookbinding is an ancient practice in libraries: it is used to protect the book, optimize its use, giving it robustness and security during consultation and handling, and at the same time contribute aesthetically to improving and embellishing it, sometimes turning it into an artistic object. But after several centuries of practice, how is it still used in libraries today? Is it still used as a form of preservation and for functional reasons? And what materials are used in bookbinding? And by whom? Who are the bookbinders today? This webinar aims to promote the discussion of these topics by presenting the results of a questionnaire launched by IFLA’s Preservation and Conservation section and with contributions from various professionals from around the world.
