We bind materials for all types of libraries.
We are a proud member of the Library Binding Institute
(LBI) and all of our operations performed
in the binding process use only acid free materials and meet or exceed the
standards set forth by the LBI. Pick up and deliveries are available in
most areas.
We can bind one or more books, periodicals, theses, dissertations, Bibles or any other type binding that our customers request.
We have a $30.00 Minimum Charge for book binding or $15.00 Minimum Charge for Imprint Stamping.
We welcome you to visit us during normal working hours (7:15 A.M. to 3:45 P.M.) Monday through Friday to get a free estimate on your binding or Restoration needs. Individual binding is performed in the same manner as Library Binding and meets the same standards set forth by the Library Binding Institute of America.
We can bind your genealogy books from one to several hundred copies. There is a wide choice of cover material to choose from including 25 colors in Library Buckram cloth. Many styles of typesetting are available for front, spine and imprint decoration. Family crests or other decorative stamping or embossing from dies is available. We also provide copies of your genealogy on acid free paper from a selection of basis weights and colors.
Almost any old book or Bible can be restored to its original condition. Treasured volumes and artifacts are skillfully restored by experienced craftsmen. We offer deacidification to prevent further deterioration of brittle paper. Where paper is beyond repair or restoration, we can make preservation boxes to store them in. All materials are acid free.
We specialize in fine leather craftsmanship binding. We provide cowhide and pigskin in a variety of grains and colors.
Whether you have a new Bible in Bonded Leather, Hardcover or Paperback or an existing one that has been passed down with precious memories or notes, we can rebind it or restore it in a durable quality binding in several different styles.
There are different types of genuine leather or imitation leather and colors to choose from. All notes and information on endpapers are kept and bound in the new cover, so nothing is lost. The original sewing is retained if it is in good condition or it is resewn including one or more new ribbons. Names can be imprinted on the front of the new cover.
Southern Library Bindery is a Certified Library Bindery incorporated in the
States of Tennessee and Mississippi. The company started in Nashville,
Tennessee in 1934 and has remained a family owned business since then. We
