We do the same...US Customs form and mail via the U.S. Post office...no
problems.

	Hi, we loan to Canada.  We fill out a US Customs form and also
affix a text for their customs that states there is no commercial value.
We use the US Post Office.  I have heard that commercial carriers are
more problematic on their end.  We haven't had any more problem with
loaning there than anywhere else.  The occasional "where in the world
was that item for so long" scenario, but mostly reasonable travel time.

	We are going to conduct a six-month trial period for loaning to
Canada. We
	want to work out some procedures here, and determine if the cost
is doable.
	Six months is a fair trial period.
	
	 
	
	Do any libraries loan av across the border? Any problems?
	
	 
	
	 
	
	I have updated the Policies Directory to indicate loans to
Canada.
