Artist Books 3.0 is a site I have just signed up with. You become a member and customise a profile page, adding your own images of your work, others work and galleries etc. You can also blog on it. It's much like this except its dedicated to Book Art, making it a great resource for book lovers! It also has this thing called 'groups' where certain aspects of book art are discussed and explored, such as "book art in education", or "libraries and artists' books". I have only been on it for a day now but already it seems to be providing lots of useful info. Annoyingly I didn't know about it when I was writing my dissertation because it would have been a great way to discuss the issues I was addressing with others in the book art world! However I just got my thesis printed today so thats that :P
I found it at the UWE book arts website http://www.bookarts.uwe.ac.uk/ which has been a massively useful resource throughout this term! If you want to see my profile or become a member of Artist Books 3.0 yourself (I do recommend it!) my page is at http://artistbooks.ning.com/profile/RosieDodds, you can link it to your twitter if you have one.
I will keep posting on here I think because it spreads my posts across twitter, facebook, blogger and obviously on here. I will mainly use Artist Books 3.0 for discussing things with others and finding out more of whats out there. Have fun!
