The Aldus Club, the international bibliophile association founded in 1990 in Milan by antiquarian bookseller Mario Scognamiglio (and presided over the years by Leonardo Sciascia, Umberto Eco, Gianni Cervetti, and currently by Giorgio Montecchi), launched a new annual magazine in 2021, "The Aldus Club Notebooks," and today marks the release of its third issue. Published by De Piante Editore, edited by Luigi Mascheroni, and graphically curated by Edoardo Fontana, the magazine dedicates its entire 2023 issue, titled "The Art of Decollecting Books," to an unusual and captivating theme: not how to build a book collection, but how to part with it in anticipation of when we are no longer here. Should it be donated? Sold? Left to heirs? Establish a foundation? Destroyed? This issue features contributions, proposals, testimonies, and "fantastic" or utopian stories from some of the leading figures in the field of bibliophilia and book culture, both members of the Aldus Club and external contributors: Paolo Albani, Roberto Barbolini, Luca Bellardini, Fabio Massimo Bertolo, Giovanni Biancardi, Giuliano Camilleri, Leandro Cantamessa Arpinati, Antonio Castronuovo, Matteo Collura, Daniele Danesi, Alessandro Danovi, Cesare Fabozzi, Edgardo Franzosini, Massimo Gatta, Mauro Giancaspro, Andrea Kerbaker, Giuseppe La Scala, Matteo Luteriani, Giuseppe Marcenaro, Stefano Marchese, Luigi Mascheroni, Giorgio Montecchi, Chiara Nicolini, Maurizio Nocera, and Hans Tuzzi.
