The ANSI/NISO/LBI Z39.78-2000, Library Binding Standard, describes the technical and materials specifications for first-time hardcover binding of serials publications and paperbound books, and rebinding of hardcover books and serials for library use. The Standard, like any technical document, is not easy reading.
Packed with illustrations, this Guide illuminates the Library Binding Standard and with its parallel numbering scheme allows side-by-side reading of the two documents. The Guide translates the technical jargon into language that can be readily understood by library staff. The Guide was written with the hope that enhanced technical knowledge will enable library staff to interpret and apply the Library Binding Standard to its fullest advantage. A series of management and training tools are included in the appendixes.
This Guide updates and supercedes the 1990 publication Guide to the Library Binding Institute Standard for Library Binding.
A user-friendly resource that will help countless library employees who are involved in commercial binding workflows to understand the standard by which the industry operates.
A useful working tool for those in the book binding profession who share an interest in maintaining and improving the condition of library collections.
