I.  Priority of Materials to be Processed

...

1. Do NOT mark or stamp these books or paste in gift plates. Leave the paper covers on and lay book plates inside the front cover.
2. Machine-produced call number labels will be attached to an acid-free strip, rather than to the book. (For materials in protective boxes or envelopes, the call number label will be placed on the spine or in the upper left-hand corner of the box or envelope.)
3. Attach the barcode that was paper-clipped to the rare flag to the upper back of the acid-free call number strip. (For materials in protective boxes or envelopes, the barcode will be attached to the lower right-hand corner of the box or envelope.)
4. Clip the strip to the last free page in the book so that the call number shows over the top of the pages.

M. WRC Reference Books

These books will have red reference and brown rare flags in them – or a “WRC-REF” flag. Keep the dust jackets and cover them with the Co-Libri plastic. The call number will be preceded by “WRC-REF.”  These items should have barcodes attached to the book inside the back cover on the bottom left-hand side. The call number will be attached to the plastic on the outside of the book.

     1. Stamp with ownership and fore-edge stamps.

     2. Glue in a date slip which has been stamped with the reference stamp.

N Bound Periodicals

These are treated as restricted books, unless there are flags that give other instructions.  If there is a “Reference” flag, treat as a reference book.  If there is a white flag with “Pocket” written on it, the book is treated as a regular circulating book and will need a date slip.  Most of these books will have the call number already printed on them; those that don’t will need to be labeled.

O. Theses

Theses are treated as regular circulating books.

P. Compact Discs (CD's)

Attach the call number label (consisting of number only; delete location) on the right side opposite where the case opens.  Do not try to stamp the compact disc   or case.  If there is room, stamp any accompanying text with the ownership stamp.
