Many of you probably already do this, but in case you need another suggestion. (:-) I use the scissors to cut laminating items to a workable size. Then, I use the paper cutter to trim all edges which is much easier and much faster. There are also several tools similar to the paper cutter that will do the same thing in an efficient manner. This is so helpful when trimming larger objects that have been laminated for our athletic teams or trimming the small flash cards for the language departments. Hope this will be helpful. Thanks again for your valuable suggestions. Happy Weekend! K.

We had 2 pair of long banker type scissors in the back workroom for people to use for cutting out their laminating. They were not great scissors, but they were engraved with LIBRARY on them which usually kept them at home in the library. Last year, one of them disappeared. Email about them missing brought no result. Oh, well...too, bad. We won't have 2 pair of scissors. Last week we suddenly discovered that we again had 2 pairs of scissors! One pair has returned from its vacation! No answers, but we now have 2 pairs again! So, try engraving them!
