SIRSI is an ILS (integrated library system). There are several ILS which
have Bindery Modules where one can keep pertinent bindery information,
but to my knowledge SIRSI is not one of them. LARS works well for that
and eliminates much of the paper.

I do keep one copy of all of the paper slips for about 2 years and then toss them when I run out of room. The LARS program keeps all of the info as far as title, color, and any pertinent info to that title such as " look for folds."
