Traveling Book Exhibit Displays Award Winners in DesignThose who appreciate the art of book-jacket and text design once again will have the opportunity to view award-winning selections from some of the nation's scholarly presses at the annual Association of American University Presses Book, Jacket and Journal Show.
The exhibit features 51 books and 32 jackets and covers.
For judging purposes, the books were divided into categories of scholarly or trade typographic and illustrated; poetry and literature; and reference.
Winners were selected from 293 books, 335 jackets and covers, and six journals that were published in 2006 and submitted by university presses.
Judges chose books for superior layout of typography or illustration; jackets and journals were judged for outstanding overall design.
The hands-on exhibit permits viewers to open and examine the volumes for a closer appreciation of the styles of bookmaking and design.
Complimentary copies of the show catalogue containing design specifications and jurors' comments will be available for visitors.
