The Bindery

The Silliman Bindery is one of the most active extracurricular arts facilities on campus. Here Silliman students learn the art of bookbinding and create their own books and journals from scratch. Over the past few years students have bound hundreds of books, ranging from leather journals to hand-bound editions of famous books, such as Les Miserables.

 

The bindery is located underneath Entryway A and is equipped with all the necessary tools and materials. Students are encouraged to use the bindery during regularly scheduled workshops and study breaks, when student instructors will be available to provide assistance.
