Abstract

The recent exhibition James Joyce’s typewriter and other stories: books at the London Institute was jointly curated by a librarian and an academic tutor. The aim was to demonstrate how six special collections in the London Institute’s Libraries and Learning Resources were relevant to the courses the students follow. In parallel, students from the Institute’s Book Arts MA created artists’ books influenced by one of the collections, and these were displayed in the exhibition alongside work by bookbinding and print media students.
