[ISLMA-Share] paperback book covers

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

We cover all our paperbacks--fiction, non-fiction, manga and graphic novels. We use Duck's Peel and Stick Clear Laminate purchased from Amazon when we cover paperbacks in house. It's acid free, permanent and inexpensive.


However, I just switched to Ingram as my book vendor, and for a small free per book, they now cover our paperbacks for us.


Hope this helps!

We use Demco Reddi-covers.

We also use Demco covers on paperbacks and graphic novels.  However, I find the problem with the graphic novels is not so much the covers as the glue holding in the pages.  They just don't have a long shelf life if they are paperbacks.

I put Demco covers on my paperbacks. It keeps them in better shape for a little bit longer than normal. I can provide the exact kind if you would like.

Do you put covers or protectors on your paperback books? I'm thinking about using them on paperback graphic novels but I'm not sure what kind is the best or even if it's worth it to do.  Cost is a concern, but ease of use is important.
