About Us

Leatherbound Book Works owner Michael Greer apprenticed and worked as a bookbinder in the North African kingdom of Morocco. Nour-Eddine Doghmi's Atelier de la Reliure in Rabat is Morocco's oldest bindery. Abdelfetah Rahal, the master binder, started at the Atelier more than 40 years ago. The shop is the bindery of choice for the King, his ministries and the diplomatic community.

Leatherbound Book Works is located in Durham, North Carolina.
