Department Meeting, February 15

Preservation issues:
1) Training on tissue paper repair. Deb does not want to send her students to do preservation repairs, so she would rather not have them trained. Discussion ensued on student and folks training. Decision: No one will get trained.
2) Uncataloged materials that need repair. Proposal was made to create short on-the-fly and then send down. Modified proposal: simple search of OCLC to see if there is a record. If there is bring that in. All of these materials would go through Laura. Discussion ensued on how we need procedures on this to discuss that will be brought back to the meeting for discussion.
3) Labels. Peggy will discuss printers with Rice. We will revisit this issue.
4) Australian and New Zealand Parliamentary Papers are going offsite, then shift will happen. Pat, Jennie and Laura will be working on this.

Statutes at Large
Discussion on whether to reclass the Statutes at Large. Decided no. Will do: Note in record, block in space where shelved out there, note on piece itself telling where to shelve.

Laura and Deb will meet and try and figure out some way to make sure there is linkage between the versions.

Circulation Policy
Fixes:
Govinfo closed stacks circulation procedures
Items with barcodes, 2c. Should end with "whichever is earlier."
For 1, change to "For all titles ask for a buffone card or public patron card to check out materials to them." Add: If don't have account and they are eligible to receive an account, have patron go to circulation to have an account created for them, then check out as normal.

Discussion points:

• Circulation of materials in the library will be until library closed.
• Materials returned to circulation desk (still not decided, will discuss with Brice).
• Public patrons (record name, driver's license, address, phone number) will get template from Special Collections.
• Make a new template for these short records to check out.
• Library use only materials create some label/envelope with wording decisions.
• Public patron receipt to govpubs@colorado.edu, we print out and patron name.
• McGov materials we need to have a discussion of how folks use those books that are in the library.
  

Peggy and Jennie will have a conversation with Brice on how to handle library use only material and circulation desk returns.
