Re: [LM_NET] writing on title page

[Wendy Stoll <wenreads@YAHOO.COM>]

We put the source, the date received, the price and the barcode along the inside 
edge of the title page. It has been useful in several ways.  A book falls apart:  
Where did we get it and when? If it's only been a couple of years or less and came 
from PermaBound or Bound to Stay Bound, I know I can get a replacement.  I don't 
know how many times kids have ripped the barcode off the back of the book, but I 
still have that info on the title page.  I suppose the info I use least is the 
price, but I have used it when asked how much is owed for a damaged book.

As long as this and secret stamping are coming up---

Just WHY do we write info on the title page?  I do it because my
cooperating librarian had me do it during my practicum last year--I put
date of order, price and barcode number.  But he didn't really have a good
reason why we do it, and I'm not sure why, either!

"I really didn't realize the librarians were, you know, such a dangerous
group. They are subversive. You think they're just sitting there at the
desk, all quiet and everything. They're like plotting the revolution,
man. I wouldn't mess with them."    Michael Moore
