Welcome to the T&T website. Here you will find pictures of touch books from all over the world and tips on how to participate in the 17th edition of the 2026 competition. It all starts with a national competition (18 countries taking part in 2024). The best designs from each country then go on to compete at international level.

The 16th edition was held in Lublin, Poland, from 5 to 8 October 2024. We look forward to seeing you on this website in March 2025 to see photos of the winning books, as well as all the books received at this year’s event. Many thanks again to all the participants.
