CCA Libraries' Artists' Books collection contains over 600 titles, including handmade books, published works, comics, zines, and books in special formats.  It features a variety of art mediums and techniques such as letterpress, risography, photography, collage, painting, hand binding techniques, and more.  

This guide is intended to help users find books which may interest them.  Library staff are also available to assist you in using the collection. Artists' books may be viewed by students, faculty, or staff any time the library is open, just ask for help at the circulation desk.  Class sessions to look at artists' books may also be arranged.  Please contact us for further assistance.

The Artists' Book collection can be searched directly through the library catalog, and many works have digitized in Vault.
