The Graduate School of Library and Information Science at the University of Illinois is pleased to announce three book arts and preservation workshops, including two new offerings. These workshops are open to the public.
TITLE: History and Identification of Historic Photographic and Illustrative Materials (New Workshop)
DESCRIPTION: Libraries, archives and other special collections inevitably contain a wide array of image materials ranging from woodblock prints, whose technology dates back to the second century AD, to modern photographic images. This workshop will survey both historic illustrative processes including woodblock printing, engraving, etching, wood engraving, and lithography, and photographic processes from daguerreotypes to modern color photography. Examples of most processes will be available for inspection and comparison. Basic care and preservation for these materials will also be covered.
