RICHARDSON COLLECTION OF TOY AND MOVABLE BOOKS Cindy Cline, Katie Caton, Alyssa Coon University of Kentucky Libraries, Third Thursday, February 2020 Richardson Collection 1 KATHLEEN & WILLIAM RICHARDSON COLLECTION • Bill Richardson had an interest in art, architecture and history • Kathleen Richardson is a librarian with BCTCS • In the early 1990’s, they were at Joseph-Beth Booksellers, saw Art Pack and Bill requested a copy for Christmas. 2 Richardson Collection KATHLEEN & WILLIAM RICHARDSON COLLECTION In 2006, they attended the bi-annual meeting of the Movable Book Society in Chicago. After attending presentations, meeting several of the authors and paper engineers, their enthusiasm for the genre increased. 3 Richardson Collection KATHLEEN & WILLIAM RICHARDSON COLLECTION • The acquisition of Art Pack, led to purchasing others by the same publisher: Architecture Pack, Music Pack, etc. • However, since these were published every other year, they began acquiring other titles that were cool, unusual, interactive, or interesting. • They began collecting titles by specific paper engineers, like Robert Sabuda, David Carter, David Pelham, etc. 4 Richardson Collection COLLECTION COMES TO UK LIBRARIES Collection was donated to UK Libraries Special Collections, in Summer 2013 Processed, Summer and Fall 2014 Additions have been made to the collection 5 Richardson Collection TOY AND MOVABLE BOOKS The term pop-up book is often applied to any three- dimensional or movable book, although the proper umbrella term is movable book, which covers pop-ups, transformations, tunnel books, volvelles, flaps, pull-tabs, pop- outs, pull-downs, and more, each of which performs in a different manner. Also included because they employ the same techniques, are three-dimensional greeting cards. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop-up_book 6 Richardson Collection HOW DOES A BOOK MOVE? 7 Richardson Collection PAPER ENGINEERING Paper engineering is the cutting, gluing and folding of paper to create books and ephemera with pop- ups, pull-tabs, flaps and a variety of other moving parts. 8 Richardson Collection LC DEFINITION AND EXAMPLES “These are books that contain text or illustrations that can be moved or manipulated, more than in the turning of an ordinary page. They are also called “action books or “special effects books.” http://loc.gov/aba/cyac/toys.html 9 Richardson Collection LC EXAMPLES • 3-D books • Board books • Glow-in-the-dark books • Lift-the-flap books • Light-up books • Pop-up books • Puzzle books • Scented books • Sound panel books • Sticker books • Textured books • Toy books 10 Richardson Collection CONSIDERATIONS FOR PROCESSING Problem: Unique character of books (Usually no flat pages, so stick slips won’t work) Solution: Use one label with call number and collection information 11 Richardson Collection CONSIDERATIONS FOR PROCESSING Problem: Location?
