Subject: Re: Bound Newspapers -- Jewel Rucker

Jewel,
It would really depend which newspaper you are talking about.  We bind
the University student newspaper, the Times Literary Supplement, and
L'Osservatore Romano (Vatican publication)  The TLS is bound in 2
volumes, but the other ones are one volume per year.  To bind a daily
paper would take more.  Also, we use Heckman Binder which charges $40.20
per volume for newspaper vs. $9.35 per volume for standard periodicals.
Just some thoughts
