I was reading through the interviews on the Zine Arcade website for a second or third time, having enjoyed hearing from creative independant publishers so much the first go round. Knowing that my memory is for shit I thought a second read would be interesting and useful.
While reading the Jackie Batey interview I came across (important link---->) a link for the Book Arts at the centre for fine print research. It is part of the University of the West of England, and I do not think I have ever seen a site that could be more rewarding and interesting for a bibliophile, there are links to many independent publishers, which I think could easily fill my spare time for the next 2 weeks, as well as news, explanations, exhibition information, they curate a traveling exhibition of bookmarks every year (I am definitely contributing, I always create my own bookmarks), they publish a bi-yearly journal documenting current book art practices, there is a plethora of promising projects presented, and I gleaned all that info having only found the site half an hour ago!
Ok, enough writing to you about it, I am going to check it out myself.
