I have learnt so much and will be leaving the UK with a more widespread view of book repair and restoration.  It has really been an eye opener for me.. just seeing how differently things can be done.  Thank you Karen, I will be taking all this home and passing it on to my students:) x

Maureen showed examples of different techniques used to repair books and paper and also different binding styles. This was a very informative visit! Thank you Maureen:)
