About the UnitThe Binding & Shelf Preparation Unit encompasses all aspects of commercial binding for the Library’s general circulating collections as well as the end-processing of all physical pieces to make them ready to be shelved and circulated. Binding activities include the first-time binding of newly acquired items and the rebinding and boxing of deteriorated items in the existing collections, including materials selected for shelving in the Mansueto Library. Shelf preparation activities include producing and applying spine labels and inserting security detection strips for collections as well as the labeling and rehousing of various media. The Binding and Shelf Preparation Unit engages in projects throughout the Library system to obtain commercial enclosures for selected older materials and newly acquired gift collections and to address marking and labeling needs. |
