What’s next? What do you need to begin to repair your books? Without knowing how far you have already come in your studies I thought I would just start at the beginning. I am going to go ahead and assume that you are starting with a blank slate even though it is far more likely you have some tools and materials and knowledge already. Use this lesson as a checklist to create your book repair work station. When you have checked all the boxes (◊) you will be ready to get started repairing your books. Then you can choose your first project. Look for some good beginner project suggestions at the end of the lesson.
