During February 2009 the SoB’s East Anglian region put on an exhibition at The University of Northampton.

All areas of hand bookbinding were represented and there were two special Saturday events - ‘Leather Day’ (a series of talks about all aspects of our favourite material) and a ‘Hands-on Day’ when the public were invited to have a go at various simple structures and techniques.
