Provides practical guidance for binding and repairing library books, explaining selection of a binder, binding processes, materials, specifications, cost considerations, and routine workflows. It evaluates methods for reinforcing and rebinding according to use and circulation, contrasts commercial, artistic, and library approaches, and outlines preparing volumes for the bindery, recordkeeping, magazine and pamphlet treatment, and in-house bindery setup. Appendices supply technical cloth specifications, a reading list, and a glossary. Emphasis is placed on matching methods to book type and use to balance durability and expense.
