We received a message from our binder recently asking that we stop using string to gather together the separate issues of a journal title and instead to use rubber bands. The binder has offered to provide the rubber bands but has also asked that we stop tying in any case as it takes them more time for processing. My experience is that using rubber bands are more likely to tear the covers than string is. I would be interested in hearing from others on this topic.
