  Bib-li-op-e-gis-tic (Pertaining to the art of binding books.—Dibdin) to which is appended a glossary of some terms used in the craft

summary:
  The art of bookbinding is now so widely known and the taste and judgment of the public so thoroughly educated by the efforts of the Grolier Club and similar associations that good work and good material are appreciated, genuine and suitable decoration recognized and the best results obtained in the combination of an intelligent customer and a skilled and artistic workman. The Trow Bindery The production of fine bindings is not a new departure with us, but has been carried on for many years in what has been aptly described as, a quality department of a quantity business, where fine work can be executed at prices that are not prohibitive.

summary:
  George Vertue, in his notes on the Fine Arts, says that small gold books were given to Queen Anne Boleyn's maids of honour; and he describes one of these little bindings which is, unfortunately, lost. It will be noticed that generally the ornamentation of English royal books is heraldic, and that crowned initials are constantly used from the time of Henry VIII.

summary:
  Small books, mostly religious works, were bound in satin from the beginning of the century until the time of the Commonwealth in considerable numbers; so much so, in fact, that their value depends not so much upon their designs or workmanship as upon their condition. Thus in both Mr. H. B. Wheatley's and Mr. W. Y. Fletcher's works on the bindings in the British Museum, in Mr. Salt Brassington's _Historic Bindings in the Bodleian Library_ and _History of the Art of Bookbinding_, and in my own _Portfolio_ monograph on 'Royal English Bookbindings,' some of the finer specimens of embroidered books still existing are illustrated and described.

summary:
  Account books take a stronger headband than other books; it must reach on to the board, which it binds to the book. Metal corners on account books are clumsy, damage the writing desks and other books coming into contact with them, and even when using the best mill-boards it is impossible to fix them so firmly that they will not work loose in the course of time.

summary:
  Skins of animals which have not reached full growth should not be used for binding library books. Because leather bound books have always been considered stronger than others, and because they have always been laced-in to the boards (see page 42) before the leather has been put on, a prejudice against cased books has arisen.
