Grading is completed and all the books turned in last Friday and Saturday are ready to be picked up. They are in the Art and Design Office FAC 273 (Harmon Fine Arts Center). They are sitting on an end table just inside the door. The office is open during normal business hours but is closed over the noon hour. If the office is locked just go down the hall and ask someone in the Arts and Sciences Dean’s office to let you in and they should be able to help you.
If you have any problems or need to make other arrangements to pick up your books please let me know.

Today:
Introduction and discussion of Japanese structures, continued.
Demonstration of Japanese Multi-Section book structure. Work in class.
For the Japanese multi-section we will mainly discuss how the materials work together and how to get your book set up and then, of course, how to sew it.
This is the last demos for the class. For the rest of the time you will be working in class toward the completion of 6 books to be submitted for your grade. Remember you must submit at least 6 but you may submit more and even re-submit corrected or otherwise improved books. Remember, your highest grade for a given book/structure will be used. The only other stipulation is that the 6 books you submit must each represent 6 of the different types of structures demonstrated in class.
