Abstract
This catalogue of a retrospective exhibition at Guilford College Art Gallery, Greensboro, North Carolina, represents over forty years of design binding by Monique Lallier, a well-known, prolific designer and binder and influential teacher, appreciated for her flawless and innovative technique and her use of unusual materials. The catalogue, well produced and beautifully illustrated, designed by Jerry Kelly, with types designed by Hermann Zapf, shows fifty-eight of Lallier’s bindings, and is preceded by four short introductions, one by the binder herself, and a good and informative essay by Karen Hanmer. Monique Lallier was born in Montreal in 1941. She studied fashion design, but in 1972 switched to bookbinding and has never looked back. She worked at first in Montreal and then, after meeting and marrying the British conservator and binder Chris Clarkson in 1987, settled in North Carolina, where she taught students from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Teaching became an important aspect of her life. From 2005 to 2009 she was Director of the American Academy of Bookbinding and her influence on her American pupils was profound.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
