rebinding
Fastening once more
Rebinding is the act of binding something again.
Most often it refers to books: a rebinding replaces a worn or damaged cover and spine to preserve the pages within.
The library sent the rare volume out for rebinding.
In programming, rebinding assigns a new value to a variable that was previously bound to something else.
