The all have useful information, but some outdated information as well.
The field actually evolves faster than I would have expected before getting into it.

I would actually recommend the list from the CPF Study Guide.

Picture Framing Volume 1 - Kistler
PPFA Guidelines for Framing Works of Art on Paper
PPFA Guidelines for Framing Works of Art on Canvas
PPFA Guidelines for Framing Textiles and Needlework
Mat Cutting and Decoration Volume 2 - Kistler
The Complete Guide to Shadowboxes and Framing Objects - James Miller
PPFA Art & Picture Framing Glossary of Standard Terms

Hi Ken,

As Cliff suggested - Note that you should also be able to purchase these recommended books at the PFM Bookshop at WCAF2018 in Las Vegas.

Cheers, Jared

If you want them before Vegas you can order them from www.PPFA.com at the Online Bookstore also.
