Jim Canary has been a book conservator at Indiana University Libraries since 1985 and set up a conservation studio in the Lilly Library focusing on the university’s collection of rare books and manuscripts. Canary is a member of the International Tibetan Archives Preservation Project and one of the founders of Paper Road Tibet. With a background in Central Eurasian Studies, Canary has traveled extensively in Asia researching the materiality of manuscript and print culture. A long-standing focus of his work has been to collaborate with traditional craftspeople and knowledge-keepers in the Himalayas and South Asian Buddhist communities to learn, document, and share the traditional crafts of papermaking, printing, and calligraphy to support their preservation and use by future generations of practitioners.
