Library Binding - 8.5 x 11 Prebound

Creating Professional  Strength Hardcover for Journals and Magazines

With our Library Binding - 8.5 x 11 Prebound service, you can transform your journals, magazines, and softcover books into stunning hardcover archival books. Our binding services meticulously preserve your softcover materials for years. Here’s how we accomplish this in a few straightforward steps:

1. Step 1: First, we pick up your journals or magazines that need binding in hardcover.
2. Step 2: Next, we trim the spine off the glued or saddle-stitched book while keeping everything in its original order.
3. Step 3: After that, we mill the trimmed book block and glue a new reinforced end sheet using a perfect binder.
4. Step 4: Then, we create a custom hardcover bookcase with a reinforced spine that matches the book block.
5. Step 5: If applicable, we foil stamp or print the information on the spine for a polished look.
6. Step 6: Finally, we carefully case the book block, complete with the reinforced spine and end sheets, into the new hardcover.
