I attended the workshop held last week by Ellen Lupton on how to create your own exhibition catalogue and I wanted to share some of the stuff I learned. She is part of the graphic design MAT program here and has written and published some books herself. She talked about independent publishing and the most economically efficient way to do that. She gave us some great websites for doing this. If you go onto her own website elupton.com you can access all of the info that she gave during the workshop. Another great website is lulu.com which is pretty cheap for publishing your own books. There are only a few options on the website, black and white or color, but they're good quality. If you want to publish your own book or catalogue or even other things you can do it on lulu; you have to develop the pages and work on photoshop. She also talked about the different copyrights available. If you're interested go to her website which again is elupton.com and then click on indie publishing and all the topics are available.
