The Periodicals Department processes the books
which are sent to the bindery and maintains the necessary files.
The Acquisitions Department staff, however, is alert to the need for
binding certain types of newly-received material: non-reference looseleaf
material; oversize, heavy, or thick paperbacks; and material for which
the request card specifies binding.
All unbound material for the Music Library or Special Collections is
screened by a staff member of the respective department to decide on binding.
As funds permit, the Acquisitions Department provides binders for publications
that are too flimsy to stand alone on the shelf.
