Best Answer

The person who binds books, as well as the firm that offers the service, is called a bookbinder. Before the first century A.D. most documents were on clay tablets or scrolls. During the first century organizations (mostly religious groups) began to write on flat materials that were bound to protect the manuscript. Following the invention of the Gutenberg printing press in 1447, inventors began creating automated binding machines.
