I restored a book under Sophia's direction some years ago. I absolutely loved her workshop and it was a delight to take her class.

My Dad used to repair books for the Newark NJ library. He would have loved to see someone else's techniques and love for books.

As an MD all I can says is she's waaaay more delicate than 96% of surgeons I've met.

I studied book binding and this woman is on another plain of existence 🤯 and she does every single part too? Amazing. Hope she has an apprentice so her craft can last as long as possible💖

This brings back memories. Years ago, I did an apprenticeship at a manual bookbinder's. On quiet days, I could help the bookbinder's wife restore antique books. Loved every minute of it. Pity I couldn't do restoration full-time, so I decided to become a teacher instead. Another way to spend time with books. 😉

The fact that she loves her occupation is reflected in the outcome of each book that she restores.

So interesting. My mother entrusted me with some very old books that were crumbling apart. I dont think theyre anything particularly noteworthy or valuable to anyone else, but Id love to see them restored. Before this video, I hadn't even considered they could somehow be brought back into readable condition. Thanks for sharing.

She is so patience about her art. It good to know someone out there especially her clients are still apreciating the real book. I collect old dictionary myself - some of the words had becoming obsolete and archaic. It is the best feeling ever to keep reading it

It's always a joy to watch bright, cheerful and skilled people talk about their passions and the odd little tools they have (or even develop) to solve their very specific challenges.

I study Bachelor of Library and Information Science and I am a 2nd year student here in the Philippines. Preserving and restoring a book is part of our curriculum and seeing videos like this makes me more inspired in this programme.

My maternal grandparents were bookbinders, and they both passed away when I was very little. This is really interesting insight into some of what they might have been doing, thanks!

As a followup to this, you should tour the Boston Athenaeum restoration and special libraries. It's a wonder and they have an event once a year or so where members can go in and make their own books. :)

I love books and I love libraries. It's silly to me that I've never heard of this before today. Thank you for all that you do!

I have a 100 year old copy of Josephus's works that I found in a thrift shop but it needs restoration badly, indeed! To know that there are folk out there that actually care about Books is so good! Thank you for sharing this with us!
