The Nebraska Book Arts Center was founded
in 1989 by the Nebraska Board of Regents to advance critical
appreciation and knowledge of the book, and to promote the arts
of fine book production.
The Center's goals are:
- to educate the public and students in the
history, theory, and practice of typography, presswork, illustration,
papermaking, bookbinding, and publishing;
- to provide information for printers, book
artists, and authors; and
- to market fine press books, especially literary
first editions.
