[PADG:2276] RE: Z39.50 for binding?

["Baird, Brian J" <bbaird@xxxxxxxxx>]

Perhaps as an Endeavor customer I am jaded, but it has been my experience over the years that a good library binder will do more to help you automate your binding process than any ILS vendor will.  Now, I recognize that is starting to change, but still, even when an ILS vendor does have a "binding module" of some sort it takes a good binder with good IT folks to make the bindery software and the ILS software work together.

I am wondering what Library Mangement Systems are working well with Binding systems suing Z39.50 as protocol.  This is most commonly done for rebinding of monograph titles.  I am particularly interested in how your system works with diacritics and  I would be intersted in hearing how it works with your system, particularly if your system is Innovative.  

Thanks in advance,
