Hi Everyone,

Our binding budget will be cut this year.  I’m not sure by how much or if it will totally be cut.  What have you all been doing instead of binding?  Sending loose issues to the bound shelves when there normally would have been a unit big enough to bind?  If you do this, do you put tattle strips every issue?  Right now, we only strip the titles that tend to “walk off,” even though they still go missing.  What other options are there besides shrink wrap? 

Thanks!

Mykie
