How do you get into book binding?

To become a book binder, gain experience through apprenticeships or entry-level positions in print shops or bookbinding companies. Developing skills in hand-binding techniques, using tools like bone folders and presses, and understanding materials such as leather and paper are essential; some professionals pursue specialized training or certifications in book conservation or binding. Entry often requires attention to detail and manual dexterity, with work environments including workshops or print shops.
