Light refreshments provided. Register below.

The term book arts encompasses artwork inspired by the concept, form, and function of the book. It includes formats such as artist’ books, zines, and comics. MIT Libraries’ Distinctive Collections holds a growing collection of artists’ books and zines that align with the Institute’s core values and enhance its teaching and research mission.

  • 5:15-6:00 - Panelists' presentations
  • 6:00-6:15 - Discussion and Q&A
  • 6:15-6:30 - Refreshments

This event is part of the Libraries' Science Storytelling through Book Arts series. Other events in the series include a zine-making workshop and an open house featuring new acquisitions and other materials from Distinctive Collections and Rotch Library.
