Hello Michael,

 

If we keep the issues longer than the current year we bind them.  It makes them easier to shelve and to locate if needed.

Hi everyone,

 

UConn holds many unbound serials - mostly backlog, as we are down to only a handful of new print receipts. Are your libraries still binding serials? Why or why not? If you do, how do you decide which serials get bound and which get shelved permanently unbound?

 

Thanks in advance for sharing your perspectives!

 

Michael
