Books to mend

Most of the books have hidden damage which is usually easier to repair.

It's been so long since I worked on rebinding or otherwise repairing some books that I almost forgot why I learned some of the basics in the first place. Yesterday just before the Friends of the Library board meeting, the President of the board brought over a box of books from the Book Den for me to consider repairing. They're actually a pretty mixed bag and should present some interesting challenges to me.

I guess I'd better get busy.

Note the book on the right is actually in four pieces.
