It almost makes me wish we all only used the cheap paperback editions you get from the missionaries.īut on the other hand, I am kind of medievalist at heart, and printed and bound books are really a medieval medium. The idea that an affluent LDS family in wherever, Utah would pay an amount for a set of scriptures that most people in the world could never afford doesn’t sit well with me. I’m speaking only from my own preferences as a reader and a book nerd, informed by just enough interest in typography and bookbinding to be dangerous, and probably not enough to really know what I’m talking about.Īs far as an overall design philosophy, I admit that I feel a real tension between two impulses when it comes to the scriptures: On the one hand, I look at expensive scripture volumes and feel a little disgusted. I’m not pretending to speak for them or anything. We have had some folks at BCC who have more experience and training in this kind of thing.

#LDS SCRIPTURES LARGE PRINT PROFESSIONAL#
I warn you that I’m not a professional book designer. Anyway, that got me thinking about what my ideal edition of the scriptures for my personal use would look like if I could design it myself. It’s a nicely done hardcover edition that would look beautiful on a shelf, but it’s pretty pricey retailing around $100. President Nelson made a gift to Ardern of what appears to be a very nice Deseret Book “ Legacy Edition” of the Book of Mormon. This was a little bit more interesting than just any meeting with a world leader for two reasons: (1) Ardern has been widely praised recently for her leadership, including her response to violence in her country, and (2) Ardern herself was raised in the church, but says she left the church in 2005 and currently identifies herself as agnostic.īut this post isn’t about that meeting, it’s about how we print and bind the scriptures. Today it’s in the news that President Nelson went and met with Jacinda Ardern, New Zealand’s Prime Minister.
