Welcome to the Queensland Bookbinders' Guild
The Queensland Bookbinders' Guild was formed in 1977 with the aim to promote, foster and practise the art of bookbinding in its traditional form and to embrace the related graphic and kindred arts. With many courses, workshops and events on our calendar, the Guild works to preserve the skills of craft bookbinding and to promote their use in both traditional and new ways of making books.

In our Beginner Course you will learn to make two books, a single section pamphlet binding followed by a hardcover book called "The Ideal Sketchbook"
Intermediate Course BookOur Intermediate Course expands on the skills learned in the beginner course and you will learn how to make a rounded and backed case bound book.
Leather BooksWe also run courses in more specialised bindings throughout the year. On top of doing courses on leather books or artist books you can learn box making.
