Bookbands

Purpose, description, and use

Identify the destination of the item, and the owning site.

Alliance Borrowing bookbands are pre-printed labels designed to wrap around the cover of a book (or manila envelope, cassette case cover, etc.). The pre-printed bands speed up processing by relieving staff from individually writing the destination site, and are more reliable than a piece of paper that could slip out of the item. A bookband is prepared for each item processed, and it is not re-usable.

Marking and applying the bookband.

See detailed instructions for marking and applying the bookband .
