Out and About with FdA part 2: Typography

This morning we visited St Bride Library which "collections cover all aspects of printing—paper and binding; graphic design, typography, typefaces and calligraphy; illustration and printmaking; publishing and bookselling; and the social and economic side of printing and its allied trades."

We had a one and a half hour lecture with Nigel Roche, head Librarian and specialist in subject of typography. It was very interesting and the library itself seemed very cool and interesting. Definitely worth a visit if you're interested in one of the subjects they cover.
