I'd like to know where in Singapore I can send my books for repair. These are rather old (many about a century old) - they are relics of my student days in the UK. They are suffering rather badly in tropical Singapore. Much of their binding and the condition of the spines is in a bad shape. Hoping you might be able to point me in the right direction.
Many thanks,
Shash
Wow, a century old!
Heritage Conservation Centre?

Hi Ivan, thank you for mentioning our bookbinding service at SPD. Yes, we have a team of experienced craftsmen who do book binding and restoration. You may bring the books for repair down to our workshop at 2 Peng Nguan Street, any time from Mondays to Fridays from 9am - 5pm (kindly avoid lunch time from 12-1pm), except Public Holidays.

Hi, I was searching up bookbinding in Singapore and stumbled into your blog. Librarian, always reading Sci-Fi? I knew a guy like that in my reservist. Happy R.O.D 2nd time, Ivan. For what it's worth, I suppose it's a nice watch. -Dennis Ong
