RARE BOOK SCHOOL (RBS) Winter Session 1998 offers several five-day, non-credit courses on the history of bookbinding and book illustration. The Winter Session courses, all of which have been offered for many years at RBS, are identical in content to the RBS summer session versions.

Students make a full-time commitment to any course they attend, from 8:30 am to 5 pm, Monday-Friday; most students also attend an informal dinner on the Sunday evening before their first class on Monday. In addition to the formal classes, there are early-evening public lectures and other events throughout the week.

The tuition for each five-day Winter course is $595. Reasonably-priced hotel accommodation is readily available nearby.
