Book on papermaking

Mindy Dubansky, Preservation Librarian at the Watson Library of the
Metropolitan Museum of Art, is spearheading a new publication
project called the Dieu Donne Papermakers' Cookbook.  In it, we will
gather all kinds of recipes and tips and produce a spiral-bound
cookbook which will become available later this year.  If you make
paper or use pulp and have a recipe or tip or two to share, please
consider submitting to this project. Here are a few subjects worth
thinking about:

    coloring pulp for fills
    forming/shaping fills with pulp
    eastern and western pulp/fiber combinations
    equipment and tools for pulp fills and paper making
    papermaking projects (lamps, books, screens, jewelry)
    plant used for papermaking
    decorative papermaking
    exhibiting paper art (installation, mounting, framing, etc.)
    papermaking anecdotes
    unusual resources, supply list ideas
    teaching in the classroom
    and more...

You can submit your tips and recipes as soon as possible to us via email:
ddpaper [at] cybernex__net or through the U.S. mail to
