Ever wonder how the rarest books of human history are preserved? I wanted to explore this world of bookbinding and visited UCLA Library for an episode of Awl About Bookbinding.

Nicole Alvarado is a Book and Paper Conservator for UCLA Library's Preservation & Conservation Department, where she works on materials from the Library's Special Collections. She takes us on a tour of the preservation lab and shows us several centuries-old books and manuscripts that she treated!

Miyako is a miniature book artist that I've been admiring for years, and it was a dream to visit her in Tokyo. I interview her about her 20-year bookbinding career and check out her exquisite works in person. She combines her love for writing and knowledge in architecture to create highly crafted works of art.
