Come and see the exhibit on Paper Engineering at the Lichtenberger Engineering Library. Paper Engineering, closely allied with chemical engineering, deals with application of math, chemistry, physics, and engineering to the pulp and paper industry; design and analysis of equipment and processes used in the manufacture of paper. The fascinating part of paper engineering is\u00a0paper art including pop-up books, miniature books and origami (paper folding). These interesting things are in the exhibit case.<\/p>\n

Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland<\/em>\u00a0from the University’s Special Collections is a pop-book made by Robert Sabuda who is a pop-up book artist and paper engineer.\u00a0Before Alice arrived at the Engineering Library, her\u00a0knee<\/a> was fixed by the University Libraries Conservation Lab.\u00a0\"Alice\"
\nAmazing miniature books in the exhibit case are also from the University’s Special Collections. These miniature books are selected from the Charlotte M. Smith Collection<\/a>. The suitcase is beyond cute! Inside there are three tiny books (in the white circle container), a magnifying glass to read them and larger copies of these tiny books.<\/p>\n

\nAmong these miniature books in the exhibit case, you may be interested in seeing picture books: a\u00a0children’s calendar in Meiji period (over 100 years ago), the Tale of Genji<\/em> (\u6e90\u6c0f\u7269\u8a9e<\/span>) and\u00a0Accordion to zither : a musical ABC.<\/em><\/p>\n

Stop by and find something more!<\/p>\n
