Physical Processing

Barcoding:

For documents with a cover, place on the first page, on the right leaf, when possible. Never cover up any important or identifying information.  Always try to find a blank area for the barcode.  If necessary, change it to a vertical orientation. On smaller documents, or documents that do not have a cover or where the actual content starts on the top page of the item, this top page may be the best place for the barcode.  CHANGE ABOVE OR ADD ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON WHERE BARCODE SHOULD BE PLACED AND OTHER INSTRUCTIONS, AS NEEDED.


Label:

Print and place a label on the item. Using one of the following label templates, according to the item you are labeling:

  • INDICATE THE LABEL TEMPLATE RECOMMENDED FOR THIS PROCESS

Notes: INCLUDE ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES ABOUT THE CONSTRUCTION OF LABEL

Do NOT remove dust jackets or coverings from the item.  Similar to the barcode, do not cover information that is needed for identification of the item. Preferred location for the label is on the lower spine of larger bound items or the lower left corner of the cover on smaller individual items for both the dust jacket and the item. CHANGE ABOVE OR ADD ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON WHERE BARCODE SHOULD BE PLACED AND OTHER INSTRUCTIONS, AS NEEDED.
