Members of the Bookmakers and Dreamers
Club took a field trip in the fall of 2008 to UniGraphic in Woburn, MA
to learn how the giant book would be printed. UniGraphic is one of the
largest commercial printers in New England and President Bob Quinlan
welcomed club members and led a personal tour of the facility. The
students learned that each side of a 10 ft. by 12 ft. page (there will
be 500 double-sided pages in the book) will take a maximum of 25 minutes
to print, depending on the color content and percentage of the page that
will be devoted to print versus accompanying graphics. They also learned
how UniGraphic developed a process for binding and completing a cover
for the huge tome.
