During the last year we have been experimenting with software to manage workshop registrations and in that time we have identified methods to make certain that all workshops are full and reduce "no-shows". To that end we are making the following changes:
All participants are strongly encouraged to sign up for the waiting list if a class is full. It is very common for registered participants to withdraw in the days leading up to the class and in that case spaces are opened to the wait list in order of registration date. When there is a cancellation the day of the class an email notice is sent to all the remaining names on the wait list with registration on a first come, first served basis.
The Dartmouth College Book Arts Program consists of a Letterpress Studio and Bindery Studio. It is open to all levels of experience; instruction on using the printing presses and in binding books is given. There is no fee to use the studios or to attend workshops but participants are expected to follow posted guidelines for cleaning up and studio use. The studios are open Fall, Winter, and Spring terms.
