Subscribers to IDFORUM may be particularly interested in one of
the following 5-day non-credit courses offered this coming summer
at BOOKS AT VIRGINIA: RARE BOOK SCHOOL 1994 (RBS):
13 PRINTING DESIGN AND PUBLICATION. In today's museums and
libraries, the texts for readers' instructions, call slips,
signs, announcements, posters, checklists, and full-dress
catalogs are generally composed on microcomputers, often by
staff members with little graphic design experience. This
course will teach the principles of good design within the
limits of readily available software programs, centering on
work generated by a laser printer and reproduced on a
photocopier (but without neglecting more complex projects
requiring the use of a commercial printer). The course will
include critiques of past examples and project work which
students bring with them to class. There will be a field
trip to a commercial printer. Instructor: Greer Allen.
GREER ALLEN has designed publications for the Beinecke
Library, the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, the Houghton
Library, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Newberry
Library, Stanford University, the University of Chicago, and
many other libraries and museums. He was formerly Yale
University Printer.
52 TYPE, LETTERING, AND CALLIGRAPHY, 1450-1830. The
development of the major formal and informal book hands, the
dominant printing types of each period, and their
interrelationship. Topics include: the Gothic hands;
humanistic script; the Renaissance inscriptional capital;
Garamond and the spread of the Aldine Roman; calligraphy
from the chancery italic to the English round hand; the
neoclassical book and its typography; and early commercial
typography. Instructor: James Mosley.
JAMES MOSLEY is Librarian of the St Bride Printing Library
in London, the largest library of its kind in the English-
speaking world. He has lectured widely in the United States
on typographical subjects. He was Founding Editor of the
JOURNAL OF THE PRINTING HISTORICAL SOCIETY.
A total of 28 5-day courses will be offered on subjects ranging
from the identification of illustration processes to collecting
travel literature.
The tuition for each RBS course is $525. Low-cost, air-
conditioned dormitory housing will be offered on the Grounds of
the University, and nearby hotel accommodation is readily
available. Students are encouraged to take advantage of RBS's
housing to arrive a few days before their course, or stay a few
days later, in order to give themselves (and their families) a
better chance to explore the Charlottesville area, which includes
many sites of historic interest as well as various vacation
attractions.
