Bindery information request Leah Norris 05 Jun 1996 17:56 UTC

Hello all,

I am beginning the process of investigating binderies to handle some of
our serials and books, and would love your input. Anyone who can offer
the following information for a bindery other than Campbell-Logan (they are
already our heroes!) please respond to me personally at:
norris@macalstr.edu.

Some of our very basic criteria are:
1) That the bindery pick up and deliver materials themselves (ie, not
shipped through mail or UPS).
2) That the bindery allow us to make leaf attachment selections and
request special handling options such as flush bottom cover mount.
3) That the quality be very high - naturally LBI Standard is our rule.
4) That they serve our area (the Midwest -  I can of course call for
specifics!).

Any information beyond this that you may be able to offer would be
helpful. If you would like to recommend your bindery - great! If you have
any cautionary tales, these would also be very useful!

Thank you for your help!
