Abstract: Many current digitization projects of ancient books focus primarily on the informationcontained within the books, while neglecting the simultaneous digitization of their physical features.Digitally presenting the binding structure and physical features of ancient books can better realize thedigital display and dissemination of the culture of ancient books within the context of the national strategy.By integrating digital technology with the cultural aspects of bookbinding, as well as the preservation andrestoration of ancient books, this paper designs a visualization model of the album structure of ancientbooks, and expounds the sorting, annotation and visualization modules in this model. It further provesthe necessity and feasibility of applying digital technology to the protection and restoration of ancientbooks, and focuses on exploring the digital display and dissemination of the binding characteristics andculture of ancient books. The digitization project of ancient books should not only be the digitization ofancient book’ contents, but also be the digitization and visualization of their physical information, such asappearance, materials and Craftmanship of ancient books.
