I found a great website that reviews the book binding process and reminds me of the meditative, peaceful library where I worked between the ages of 14 and 17…I think I used to participate in gluing and positioning books in blocks in book presses under the watchful eyes of the intellectual librarians…the only liberal intellectuals and feminists in the conservative Midwestern town where I grew up to whom I was regularly exposed, little did anyone know…
Anyway the webpage is http://www.indiana.edu/~libpres/manual/treatments/cbind/front.html
I just purchased a bone folder and am looking forward to jumping into this.
