  • Advertisements should be discarded.
  • Duplicate issues should be removed.
  • Annual indexes may need to be tipped into previously bound volumes.
  • Cumulative indexes should always be bound separately, and require a bib. adjustment; refer to a serials cataloger/SeERs Team.
  • Errata should be inserted in relevant piece, preferably at relevant page.
  • Supplements and special issues are often, but not always, bound with the main title; check the record for notes about previous supplement treatment:
    BIB  525a Supplements accompany some vols. - means supplements are bound in with main title
    BIB  770t [Supplement title]  indicates a separately-cataloged supplement; do not add to main title
    MFHD  866z  - may contain additional notes about supplement treatment
    If none of these notes are found, refer to a serials cataloger/SeERs Team for a supplement decision.
    When being bound in with the main title, a supplement should immediately follow the issue it was received with, unless a designation on it suggests a different order.
  • CD/CD-ROM supplements can be sent with the volume, with a note on the binding slip asking to have a pocket made. They should be marked with a sharpie pen as instructed here:
