Making gorgeous photo books all starts with the new dynamic Theme browser. As you flip through the browser, you’ll see how your photos look in each theme. Just choose your favorite and iPhoto places all your photos in the right spots mdash; and even makes sure photos of people are cropped and framed perfectly. You can change the background color, font, layout, and more with just a few clicks. Use your favorite photo for the book cover. Add full-bleed, two-page spreads to really show off your best shots. Make books big enough for the coffee table or small enough to carry around, with hardcover, softcover, and wirebound options. And make many, many copies.

Small Book Exchange Small Book Exchange (SBX) is an annual project of BookWorks Co-op. It is a fund-raising exhibition, creative collaboration, and a unique example of the projects that make the Co-op such an exciting Membership group. Each year presents a new theme and Members are invited to participate in making an edition of small books no bigger than 3x3x3 inches. The books are exchanged among participants and at least one, complete edition, uniquely 'boxed' is donated for raffle. Proceeds support Artist Residencies Programs and Tuition Scholarships at Asheville BookWorks.
