    We are a law firm library that has attorneys who prefer the hardcopy
    version of BNA's Tax Management portfolios. Some of the portfolios, in
    print form, are so thick that pages pop out as you turn pages. (US
    Income 506-2, 531-2, Foreign Income 897,912,966-3rd,& 999-2d)
    Historically, BNA used to divide portfolios when they grew too large for
    a single portfolio. BNA has offered to ship us a new portfolio each
    time there are any updates since they agree the portfolios are too thick
    to file. (I can hear the customer service rep now telling me I've
    already received x number of replacement portfolios this year so they
    are going to charge me for the one we lost) They have also offered to
    sell us a license to the electronic format. (many times--our attorneys
    like the paper, thank you)

    Has anyone come up with an innovative way to keep this set filed?

    Failing that, or possibly in addition, if enough of us see this as a
    problem and complain to BNA; BNA might become aware they are still
    selling subscriptions to hardcopy format and should be maintaining it.

    Thanks for listening and in advance for any suggestions or support
