Binder's Tools
A variety of tools used in hand binding, generously loaned by the University of Chicago Library’s Head of Conservation, Ann Lindsey, whose scientific analysis of the binding of the sixteenth-century antiphonary can be viewed in the wall case in the rear of the gallery. Among the tools on display are an awl, bone folders, a brush, clamp, cutting mat, mallet, needles, a ruler, thread, and a tooling wheel.
