The Lincoln Bookbindery in its longtime Urbana, IL location is permanently CLOSED. The equipment and Tedra's expertise have moved to Dixon Graphics in Champaign, IL at 105 W. John St., 61820. If you call the bindery number listed on this page, it will ring at Dixon Graphics. Or call Dixon Graphics directly at (217)351-6100. We have loved our customers here in this location for decades, but it's time for Chris to retire and for Tedra to continue binding work at Dixon. Your old records are moving to Dixon so Tedra will know how to consistently foil stamp covers on books that you have had us make in the past. Thank you for many very wonderful years at this location. I added the new Dixon Graphics address for our address and THAT location is OPEN. Please note that the bindery at Dixon Graphics does NOT accept any book repair or do leather work.

After 52+ years of assembling books, and 46+ years of owning the shop, I've decided it is time for me to move on. Starting March 1 ownership of this bindery will move to Dixon Graphics in Champaign, IL. Very long time co-worker Tedra will be moving with it. We are no longer accepting work at this address. Friday Feb. 21 our phone number will begin connecting to Dixon Graphics and at some point our website will move to their website. The machinery and supplies will take some time to move and set up so I would think they will be processing books around mid-March. -- Chris

Due to weather, the Lincoln Bindery won't open until noon today (January 6, 2024). Give the city some time to clear the roads.

It was 50 years ago today I started working for the previous owners of the bindery, Paul and Shirley Hursey. I am now entertaining suggestions for my second career. Thank you, Chris

It APPEARS that Instagram has successfully deleted the Lincoln Bookbindery's account at our request. It was taken over by someone else and posts were being made by them that we could not edit or delete. We were locked out of our own Insta account (I will not use the "H" word because it seems to bring on tons of spam for paid recovery services). Currently, the Lincoln Bindery does not have an Instagram account.
