Oxford Bodleian Library 2009 7.75 x 10.75 inches hardcover 98 pages
One of the foremost bookbinding societies in the world, Designer Bookbinders is devoted to the craft of fine bookbinding. The society is dedicated to preserving and improving the craft and design of fine bookbinding through the encouragement, exercise, and maintenance of standards. It also focuses on the promotion of public interest in the area of fine bookbinding by means of exhibitions, public lectures, classes, and an annual bookbinding competition.

The annual bookbinding competition has run since 1975. In 2009, the society organized its first ever international competition, as it had previously only been opened to entrants working in Britain. The competition is based on a set book, which is the text for which the participants form their binding. This allows the binder to interprete the text and be inventive with the structure.

Bound for Success showcases the winners of the 2009 international competition of Designer Bookbinders. The set book for the competition was Water from the Incline Press, a book that incorporates original prints by Clare Curtis, Bert Eastman, Rigby Graham, Eric Hasse, and Paul Kershaw. The first and second prize winner have been given a page spread each displaying their binding and a short description of the materials and the inspiration for the design. Beautifully illustrated with full-color photographs of each binding, the book also lists and describes 117 other entrants' bookbindings in the competition, highlighting the distinguished winners. A catalogue of many non-exhibitors is also included. The book concludes with a glossary of bookbinding terms and an index of entrants organized by country.
