Heckman
Bindery, Inc. is pleased to introduce Preservation Photocopying
services. Preservation Photocopying is an economical way to convert old
and brittle books into high quality new books.
Books that have structural damage or brittle pages are excellent
candidates for these services. By re-creating books that still provide
useful information and are still in demand, this service eliminates
problems with lost pages or further damage to the original volume,
offering a reproduction copy of the original volume for patron use. In
most cases, preservation photocopying is far more economical than
converting volumes to digital formats or replacing the volumes with new.
Heckman
Bindery’s Preservation Photocopying department offers state-of-the-art
photocopying equipment that creates superb quality reproductions.
Digital Konica 7025 photocopying machines are used to produce quality
two-sided prints.
A
Minolta PS7000 book scanner is also used to allow reproduction of a book
while leaving it intact.
Tape tests are performed periodically to monitor proper bonding of toner
to the acid-free 20 lb. bond white or off-white paper, meeting the
ANSI/NISO Z39.48-1992 Standard for Permanence of Paper for Publications
and Documents in Libraries and Archives.
As part of the normal replication process, the inner margin is increased
for ease of opening and to accommodate patron copying of the replacement
book. The volume is then
bound according to your account specifications as either a custom or
economy book.
If you are a current Heckman customer, materials needing Preservation
Photocopy can be included with your normal binding shipment, saving the
additional cost of shipping separately.
Heckman Bindery complies with all requirements of the
ANSI/NISO Z39.48-1992 Standards
in order to create attractive, high quality copies.
As with all of our Conservation Services, Preservation Photocopying is
yet another example of how Heckman Bindery serves ALL your preservation
needs.
