National Book Lovers Day

Book Lovers Unite! Whether you prefer hardcover, softcover, or digital, book lovers around the country are celebrating National Book Lovers Day. While most books are now read on tablets or smartphones, there is nothing like holding a hardcover book and reading away. Or the satisfaction garnered by reading a paperback book and not breaking the binding. One of the first bookbinding patents was granted in 1868 to David Smyth. The techniques he developed are still used today!
