At SISSA we have the Doctoral theses bound in a very simple way by the
internal printing office (photocopies are held together between two
transparent covers by means of a rigid plastic strip on the left hand).
Doctorandi ussually give one copy to the Library and one copy to the
Scientific Sectetariat. They do not have to bear any expense.
I hope this can be helpful, a nice day to all serialists
