  • The Harvard Bindery: a Short History Weissman Preservation Center, Harvard University Library
    The Harvard Bindery: A Short History Weissman Preservation Center, Harvard University Library Sarah K. Burke Spring 2010 The history of bookbinding is the history of a craft that, like printing, began with handmade tools in a workshop and developed into a mechanized industry capable of a tremendous output of product. The field has become so specialized that there is a particular set of materials and practices designed to increase the durability (and thus the longevity) of books and serials for use in library collections: library binding. Although libraries have always bound and re-bound books, standardized library binding procedures are a product of the past 150 years. Practically speaking, a book’s binding makes it sturdier by reinforcing its spine and allowing it to open with minimal damage. It also offers the book’s text block some degree of protection from pests and the elements. Rebinding a book may become necessary if the original binding is damaged or if the text block is falling out of its binding. In the case of serial literature and loose items, binding can keep volumes in order. As early as 1851, for example, Harvard’s early manuscript records were bound together, “for their preservation and for preventing future loss.”1 Consistent colors, fonts, or styles of binding are also useful for arrangement and security of library materials. Despite its many virtues, bookbinding has sometimes led to the destruction of important artifactual information, or to the creation of a tightly-bound book that is easily damaged by users. William Blades devoted an entire chapter of The Enemies of Books to the damage bookbinders have done to the “dignity, beauty, and value” of printed pages.2 Too often in the past, libraries and private collectors have had historically important bindings stripped from books in order to replace them with more elegant or uniform bindings.
