Sorry you won't get any help from me.   We stopped binding in 2008 and have never regretted it.  In addition to the time and money involved in binding, we have saved storage space as more and more of things we had previously bound became available online.   We still have older bound materials on our shelves and they are rarely used.   We no longer have any current print subscriptions.

Hi,

 

Could you all help me come up with reasons to continue binding periodicals?  I have some (saving money-rather than putting security strips in every issue, security, being fiscally responsible with state money, etc.), but I’m looking for more to make my case.  Last year, I was only able to send out 200 items, and my director didn’t really want me to send that much.  We have overflowing shelves and really need to send more out.

 

Thanks in advance!

Mykie
