Time ceases in a Library. Its lifeblood, its books, transports the reader to another time. The bookmark arrests that other time and contains the promise of a necessary return in the future.

Within the ancient walls of Wenlock Abbey sits the newly created Louis de Wet Library, built to honour the past glory of the printed word, and protect its future – a new link in an old chain.

The Louis de Wet Foundation is proud to be hosting a workshop in the ancient setting of the Great Hall – a world away from laptops and mobile phones – where you will learn the basics of composing type by hand, using traditional Victorian printing presses brought from Nick’s workshop in Bristol.

You are invited to bring with you a favourite quote from a book or poem. This quote can be up to 30 words maximum, and, you may also bring a reserve quote, a shorter one, with up to 15 words, if you wish.

Using time-honoured techniques, you will learn how to set the letter type and hand print bookmarks using your own carefully chosen quote. You will leave with at least 30 bookmarks which you can take home at the end of the day. Such uniquely made bookmarks make treasured gifts or can be placed in your own cherished books. The workshop is designed for people with little or no experience and with a maximum of 6 students, ensures individual attention.
