"John and Rosalind Randle are the only two full-time members of the staff; Miriam Macgregor comes in two days a week, mostly to help with hand-setting, and spends much of the rest of the week working on wood-engravings for the Press's books; George Wigall comes to work the Monotype caster and Basil Wilks to operate the keyboard [...]; Collen Gryspeerdt does our marbling when family commitments allow; and Rosalind's sister Maggie Walker helps with the growing piles of paperwor[k.]"--page [2]
