How to Do Things with Books

Catalog description

What can one do with a book? Read a novel, sure, but also cook a fabulous meal, join a movement, or reimagine ways of being. Each class will focus on old or rare materials in the John Hay Library and throughout Providence. We’ll explore the nature of the book through discussion and hands-on activities such as letterpress printing and zine-making. Enrollment limited to 19 first-year students.
