To trim or not to trim Linda Hulbert 03 Jun 1999 17:10 UTC

We have recently switched to a new binder.  They report that many of
their customers have come to prefer their journals untrimmed due to the
risk to the material of overtrimming or for "preservation issues."

While a prefer a neatly trimmed journal visually, I am willing to
consider a "no trim" decision if that's becoming the standard.

Could I hear from Libraries who have made the decision one way or the
other and why?

Thanks. lh
