I have been doing this for 20 years - I totally agree with Abbigail&#39;s comments.<br><br>We are getting - and will continue to get - fewer print journals each year as we go online only.  So the number decreases but the tracking/claiming of them doesn&#39;t change.  We are continually re-thinking our binding policy, however, as this continues to be a big expense and the usage - in certain cases - may be minimal.  I agree - I still don&#39;t like to bind incomplete!<br>
<br>So we will see as the year progresses.<br><br>MMD<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Martha Davis<br>Serials Manager<br>Preus Library Luther College<br>700 College Drive<br>Decorah, IA   52101<br>(563) 387-1192<br><br><br><br>
