Righton Press

This new initiative brings together a unique collection of resources and expertise within MMU; the bookbinding studio, the collection of wood and letterpress type and associated printing equipment, combined with a linotronic output capability and a large scale digital print facility. This workshop base is complimented by the extensive collection of artists books housed in All Saints library.

The mission of the Righton Press is to push the boundaries of book art by publishing and exhibiting books which respond directly to the claim for 'interactivity' which has been made in recent times by digital media. The Righton Press will deliberately collide the two worlds of digital print and the traditional technologies of offset lithography, letterpress typography and the hand made small edition multiple.
