Susan said "For Alex & other lace authors, may I cast my vote for spiral bound editions? ......... Books lie flat & do not need to be propped open--very handy when one is trying to follow the instructions!"
But I understand that suppliers and librarians aren't so keen on then as they get bent out of shape more easily, and 'sag' when in a bookstand. Â And as a teacher carrying books around, I do try to be very careful to give my spiral and comb bound books support from more traditionally bound ones. Â They are also harder to push into a gap in a very full bookcase! Â There are pluses and minuses to everything in life I guess. Â If you produce a spiral bound book, please make sure you opt for an extra heavy cover sheet front and back as this makes a vast difference to both the feel and the durability of the book.
