[ILL-L] lending book straps not needed?

[Document Delivery]

That's the reason for us to keep them - when they come back, how would
we check them in without a strap on them? Most libraries would return
the paperwork, as we try to do, but that doesn't work sometimes. Ed.

We use Lending book straps for two primary reasons:  1) We hope it's
harder for the borrowing library to miss information that's attached to
the front of the item and 2) It makes it easier to sort our incoming
mail-most returned Lending items have our book straps on them, incoming
Borrowing items don't.

I notice that maybe half of the books we borrow don't have lending book
straps, we add a borrowing book strap to all books. Our books are well
stamped and identifiable, and when we lend them I assume the borrowing
library adds a borrowing book strap with the due date. Any reasons to
continue using lending book straps? Thanks, Ed.
