How This Lesson Works
• You will be given step-by-step instruction.• If you have questions at the end, there is
contact information on the last slide.• For more information see the section in the
Course Reserve Manual on Preparing Materials for Reserve.
Labeling• Library materials
will already have a barcode and call number attached.
• For Department- or Instructor-owned materials place the Barcode on the back of the item in the upper right-hand corner.
Labeling• For Department- or
Instructor-owned materials place the Call Number on the spine about ½” from the bottom.
• Place the Reserve label on the spine about ½” above the call number.
• Place the Loan Period label on the spine about ½ “ from the top.
Labeling• Dayton Campus
Only: Add the Loan Rule and Fines label to the front cover in the lower right-hand corner. Adjust if necessary to avoid covering the title of the item.
Labeling – DVD Example
• When labeling a DVD, follow the same rules, but also write the barcode on the top of the DVD in permanent marker.
Labeling – VHS Example
• When labeling a VHS tape, also write the barcode on the face of the tape in indelible marker. In this example the VHS tape has a duplicate barcode on its face.
Labeling – Periodical Example
• Since most periodicals are not thick enough to have a spine, place the Loan Period label in the upper left-hand corner of the front cover.
• Place the Reserve label in the lower left-hand corner of the front cover while avoiding any other labeling.
• The Loan Rule and Fines label should be placed as to avoid covering wording if possible. (Dayton only)
• The Barcode should be in the upper right-hand corner on the back cover.
