This is list of 12 books I would recommend for someone starting out in bookbinding. The idea is you could buy one book a month for a year. If you are interested in more modern artist book type structures you might buy The Art of the Fold early, maybe straight after Kathy Abbott's book.
These videos are only possible thanks to the support of Patreons, and if you are able, your support would be greatly appreciated.

The #DASBookbinding Channel is the perfect starting point for learning #bookbinding. It covers foundation skills, simple projects, technical methods, materials and more advanced bookbinding projects. The videos are presented in a tutorial or lesson fashion, which I hope are easy to follow. The knowledge presented is based on traditional techniques which can be used to create traditional books or as a foundation to quality journalling or creative artists' books. The best way to find what you are looking for is the DAS Bookbinding YouTube Channel guide.
