Here is a tutorial from Grathio labs, on how to make a book into a lamp of sorts. As always I have mixed feelings about treating books like raw material, but I suppose if you’ve got one you’re certain will be unread forever, this is better than throwing it out!
Illumination is provided by an LED strip, switched on or off by a whisker switch that detects the position of the cover. Mechanically dimmable by the simple act of opening or closing the cover at a wider or narrower angle.
