Book Swap 2024

NSBAG's 2nd annual book swap was held Monday, November 25th at the Central Library. Eleven books wrapped in brown paper were numbered and placed on a table. Participants each selected a number, and then one by one, the parcels were slowly unwrapped to oohs and aahs. The creator of each book gave details of their work.

Just like last year, participants outdid themselves creating a lovely variety of one-of-a-kind hand bound books, from traditional to modern. Each book uniquely displayed its maker's creativity, style and skill. Well done, bookmakers!


After the book swap, Heather Loney spoke about NSBAG's participation in Nocturne 2024. She showed the remains of the Oxford Illustrated Dictionary that was dismembered to create miniature books, and offered leftover mini books to attendees. We also had an antique iron to give away as a doorprize. Congrats to Sally who got to take it home.
