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

[Susan Connell Derryberry]

We always write the borrowing libraries symbol along with the ILL number on the date due slip in case they forget to return the paper work so we know where to look.

Hi Beth,

I put the paperwork inside the book and so far most libraries have
returned the paperwork with the book. If the paperwork is not returned I
do have to do some detective work but otherwise no problem. About 75% of
the libraries that loan books to us also use that system. I remove all
loose paperwork and keep it filed before I release it to our patrons
then put it back in the book when it is returned. Hope this helps.

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.
