Curious about Movable Artist Books?

So are these three Hampshire students!  Hidden in plain sight, right across the checkout desk on the first floor, lies a glass trove of passion and creativity covered in black velvet. These movable artist books, designed and created  by Nadia Herman, Sarah Jane Young, and Emma Rentz during an Independent Study with Karen Koehler, Professor of Architectural and Art History, and Rachel Beckwith, Access and Arts Librarian, will only be in the library for a little while longer.  Stay tuned, be curious, and look out for spotlights on these incredible creators and their creations.
