Artists' Books in UMD Special Collections

An overview of the artists' book collection found in Literature and Rare Books in Special Collections at the University of Maryland.

Introduction

Some of the artists' books in our collection use different forms of media to engage readers in ways that the 'normal' reading experience cannot. These often implement audio-visual methods like videos or music, adding to the experience of the book by capturing more of the reader's senses. Listed below are a selection of the artists' books with mixed media features.
