[ILL-L] Foregoing bookstraps in favor of simply inserting paperworkinside books

[Document Delivery]

We put straps on borrowed books, but we just stopped putting stickers on loaned books in favor of paperwork inside. We use a piece of the Clio printout, it has the ILL number, and we stamp 'Please return with book' on it. We started in mid-December and have only gotten two books back without paperwork so far,

I would like to hear from libraries which insert ILL paperwork inside
borrowed books rather than attach a bookstrap to them. How does it work
for you? Do patrons for the MOST part return the paperwork? Any
problems?

I *very* much appreciate your input, either to me personally or to the
list here.
