I used to work for one, but with the internet for how to videos and e books I am surprised they are still going. What function do they serve other than printing the got damn tax code?

I for one enjoy the number of leather bound books in my home and wouldn't mind having more.

How long do bookbinders have left?

If you're talking large commercial operators like those who print/bind text books and John Grisham novels... then I'd say they'll be around just about forever.

Now if you're asking about local operations where you go to get a book spine repaired, rebound, or to get your father's handwritten memoirs bound? I'm honestly surprised there are any left.

I think the specialty publishers will be around for a while. I'm talking the folks who produce special editions of beloved books.

Easton Press, Folio Society etc.
