Website of the Week


This week's website is all about the cover: The Book Cover Archive is a very cool site that reminds us that all cannot be just digital in the world of books -- that the beauty and the pleasure of the physical object lives on. It is a hand-picked archive collected "for the purpose of appreciation and categorization of excellence in book cover design." You can browse the collection by designer and title, as well as by author, illustrator, genre, publication date, publisher, and even typeface. Users can suggest new additions for the gallery, as well as to comment on the books that are added to the site. See if you can choose your next book by its cover!
