The Book Doctor Is In

Ever wondered how a book is put together? Or how to repair that old volume you inherited from your grandmother? What about that stack of antique books that has been sitting in your basement—ever wonder whether they could be restored? The Book Doctor is here to answer all of these questions and more! Biblioasis would like to cordially invite you to drop by the shop, 1520 Wyandotte St. East, on Saturday March 28th, from 1-4 p.m., as world-class bookbinder and restorer Dan Mezza will be offering appraisals and repair suggestions on a drop-in basis.

This Week in Books

National Poetry month continues with an event in Halifax tonight, Tuesday April 22, at 6:30 pm. There Invisible Publishing, Literary Press Group, and The League of Canadian Poetry are presenting, for your listening pleasure, an evening of exemplary Canadian poets. Biblioasis' own Richard Norman will be reading from Zero Kelvin, a collection that marries astronomy to poetry. Also appearing are Geordie Miller, launching his collection Re:union, Rachel Lebowitz reading from Cottonopolis, and Sylvia Hamilton with her new collection And I Alone Escaped To Tell You. Stop by Argyle Fine Art, 1559 Barrington Street, Halifax for your literary fix.

Biblioasis is also pleased to announce the return of The Book Doctor Dan Mezza. Bring your antique, rare, and damaged books to the Bibliomanse on Saturday April 26th from 1-4pm for information on restoration and preservation.

More event postings to come.
