This year’s theme considers books not simply as paper, ink, and binding, but as profoundly collaborative objects shaped at every stage by labour, creativity, culture, ownership, and interpretation.
We invite participants to explore the diverse social, material, and cultural processes through which books—broadly conceived—have been created, preserved, circulated, and transformed.
The full call, for proposals and awards, is available in English here.
The deadline for submissions is Jan 30th 2026.
Hello,
I was writing to ask whether it would be possible to attend this event as a learner. I have previously completed a course in book history and have attended several workshops and conferences in a learning capacity. I would be very interested in participating in this event as well.
