Exeter Cathedral Library & Archives, Exeter, EX1 1HY
Thursday 24th September 2026
‘1000 Years of Bookbinding’ invites you to take a closer look at some of the Cathedral’s most beautiful bindings, from medieval tawed sheepskin to gorgeous gold-tooled goatskin and polished tree-stained calf.  Discover how bindings have been made across the centuries and what they can tell us about books and their owners.

Places are limited; booking is essential.

This is the second in our series of seminars on the Art of the Book.
