Vendor Description
Perma-Bound, a division of Hertzberg-New Method Inc. has been a leader in the book rebinding industry for over 60 years.
Hertzberg-New Method Bindery opened in its current location in South Jacksonville, Illinois on June 17th, 1954. In the mid 1960’s Hertzberg-New Method began a new division of reinforced paperback books that would become known as Perma-Bound Books, and thus started the line of products that schools and libraries nationwide view as, “the strongest books you can buy.”
Perma-Bound has been family owned and operated since its beginning, offering customers big business service, knowledge, and experience, but with a small town feel and personalized customer service.
