In our library book dust jackets are discarded. As you all know, these
jackets may contain 
valuable information about the authors or their works, not yet available
anywhere else. Since 
laminating dust jackets is labor intensive and costly, is there an
economical way to maintain the content?
Some libraries cut the needed section from the dust jacket and paste it
inside the cover, opposite the half-title. 

Thanks.
