In January 2022, the free Core Symposium on the Future of Library Binding featured updates from the LOC Preservation Directorate, perspectives on the state of the industry, and a discussion on current practice and the need to pivot in response to changing commercial binding landscape.
Focusing discussion on the current crisis facing the binding industry and its impact on library binding, the symposium addressed the state of the industry, library binding standards, and current practices in view of these impending changes.
If you’re interested in continuing the discussion on this topic, join our Preservation Administration Interest Group and follow the work of our Preservation Standards & Practices Committee.
