Best-designed books on display

Who says you can't judge a book by its cover? The University of Utah's Marriott Library is celebrating the American Institute of Graphic Arts' 50 Books/50 Covers exhibition showing 100 of the best designed books and book jackets from across the country.

Included in this year's exhibition is Utah's very own "Something Lived, Something Dreamed, Urban Design in the American West," published by the Marriott Library's Red Butte Press, that has received national acclaim. The library is at 295 S. 1500 East.

The exhibition runs through May 5. Hours are 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and 9:15 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturdays. For more information, call 585-6168 or go to www.lib.utah.edu/aiga.
