Lyon Township operates the same way as Auburn Hills - used to use them, discontinued when we went to curbside only at the beginning of COVID-19, now letting current and past copies circulate. Doesn't seem to be affecting wear and tear too much.

Magazine Binders
by Chase, Kristine 11 Jul '22

11 Jul '22

Hello Library World, I am reaching out to see what other libraries are doing with their serials. We at the Livonia Public Library are currently using magazine binders to protect our current issues. We are considering not continuing this practice, and we wanted to see what other libraries currently do. Here are the questions that we are looking at: Do you currently or in the past have used magazine binders? If you have and don't anymore, have you seen an increase in wear and tear to your materials? Has theft been an issue? If you currently are using magazine binders how often do you have to replace them? If so, what is the cost to replace them? If you have used them in the past, but no longer do what was the reason that you discontinued using them? If our library could get even a few responses we would be grateful. We are trying to see what other libraries practices are, so that we can make a decision on our practices. Thank You, Kristy Chase [cid:LivoniaLibrary-150_448311fd-878c-427d-a2b3-a583dea86bcb.png]<http://www.livoniapubliclibrary.org> Kristine Chase Librarian I Livonia Public Library (734) 466-2156 kchase(a)livoniapubliclibrary.org www.livoniapubliclibrary.org<http://www.livoniapubliclibrary.org> [cid:SocialLink_Facebook_32x32_f4cd0f65-1d29-42e1-8c6b-fa4525a26a66.png] <https://www.facebook.com/livonialibrary/> [cid:SocialLink_Twitter_32x32_88eae9ba-dbc6-4e96-8fbb-583ba4e951d4.png] <https://twitter.com/livonia_library> [cid:SocialLink_Youtube_32x32_aebcc362-2268-4807-a71b-51f1c09418fd.png] <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC81D_yBDdwEXucKYYvCnXOQ> This message is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed, and may contain information that is privileged, confidential, and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable laws.
