        exhibition:

    Just wanted to let everyone know about an innovative and unique
    exhibition catalog. What makes this catalog really unique, aside
    from the bindings shown, is the format. The catalog is issued
    with both a beautiful, full-color, printed catalog and a
    interactive (Flash) CD which features all the bindings in the
    exhibition, as well as background information about the book,
    its production including music.

    Full information about the project and exhibition can also be
    found at the Guild of Book Workers, Midwest Chapter, site at

    To me, this is probably one of the most interesting catalog
    designs in a long time, and one which belongs in every book
    artists' collection. (We do all collect exhibition catalogs,
    don't we?)

    The regular edition of the catalog sells at $20, the deluxe at
    $25. Full order information is available at the URL listed
    above.

    The exhibition travels to:

    May 24-June 23: Spencer Research Library, University of Kansas,
    Lawrence

    July 1-July 26: Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton
    County, Cincinnati, Ohio

    August 5-Sept. 6: Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois

    Sept. 18-Nov. 8: Minnesota Center for the Book Arts,
    Minneapolis, Minnesota

    December 8-January 18, 2003: The Portland Museum, Louisville,
