The 2008 Bookbuilders West Scholarship Celebration showcased the immense talent and hard work of college students enrolled in book design courses throughout the Western states. We thank all the students who entered their projects and congratulate the winners!

“Thanks again for the events you organized on behalf of BBW to celebrate the achievements of our students. I want you to know that Bookbuilders West's mentorship is not only an inspiration to our students, but an invaluable resource to educators. It is an honor to be welcomed into a network of such accomplished publishing professionals who are not only dedicated to the field, but who so generously lend their time and expertise in support of the next generation of publishing professionals. These events were a wonderful way to bring everyone together!”

—Barbara Sudick, Associate Professor, Department of Communication Design, California State University, Chico
