The three classes run simultaneously at the enssib school (French LIS
school), with practical sessions at the Lyon City Library, the Printing
Museum and the City Archives. The courses are aimed at a large variety
of specialists (librarians, curators, students, scholars, artisans,
scholars, graphic designers, booksellers, students, etc.) who encounter
questions related to the history of the book, printing and graphic
communication in the course of their work or research. Each course is
taught by a leading expert in the field with emphasis on the study of
original documents.

In order to facilitate access to collections and “hands-on” study of
original documents, each class is limited to 12 students.

Course fees (one course – 4 days):
Full price: 500 euros
Student rate: 300 euros (required mandatory documents: a motivation
letter, CV and a copy of your university student card)
The course fees include the provision of study materials, a welcome
cocktail and tea/coffee breaks. It does not include meals and
accommodation.

Last but not least, the Bibliographical Society
(http://www.bibsoc.org.uk/) is offering a bursary of 500 pounds to one
of the students who wishes to attend the Book History Workshop 2015. To
apply, please send a motivation letter, CV as well as the application
