New York The Grolier Club 1998 6 x 9 inches paperback 120 pages
This catalogue, made to accompany the exhibition held at the Grolier Club from March 11 to May 2, 1998, expresses the voices of American women writers through their books. The catalogue explores the movement of women writers in America, beginning with the homespun verse of Ann Bradstreet (the first volume of poetry published by any American) and closing with the appearance of Edith Wharton's highly polished "Age of Innocence" (winner of the 1921 Pulitzer Prize for the best American novel). It is intended to be an overview of the works of authors who reflect the historical concerns of women living in America and the emerging voice of the American woman writer. The book also includes a frontispiece in color and a full-page illustration in black-and-white. It was designed and typeset by Katy Homans, and printed by the Stinehour Press.

New York The Grolier Club 1984 7 x 10 inches hardcover 146 pages
Books and Prints, Past and Future is a collection of papers delivered at the Grolier Club's centennial celebration in 1984. These speeches were given during the course of three seminars and the final dinner of the convocation. The first seminar, devoted to retrospective essays, kicked off with an essay by Mary Hyde, the first woman elected to membership at the Grolier Club. G. Thomas Tanselle was next to present an essay, and Robert C. Darnton was the third speaker. The second set of presentations was based off the understanding that the Grolier Club took its origin after a period of neglect. The last seminar contained speeches on the future prospects of the book, given by Robert Giroux, James Thorpe, and Benjamin Compaine. In all the speeches, there was a consistent effort to see present-day collecting in the frame provided by collections of the past. These sets of speeches were delivered by Andrew Robison, Walter Bareiss, Eberhard Kornfield, and Frank Stella. The final and closing essay was delivered by Daniel Bell who provided a schematic framework for the "information revolution."
