General Guidelines
Follow the guidelines below for DVDs containing both movies and data files.
- Remove all shrink wrap and adhesive seals before placing barcodes on items.
- If necessary, cover text or pictures.
- Place the barcode on the outer plastic box, in the upper left corner of the back, leaving room below for a date due slip.
- Do not cover the ISBN (if present).
Boxed Sets
Boxed sets should follow the same guidelines as booksets.
- Each separately cased piece in a box should be barcoded individually.
- Do not barcode the box. This is so each piece can be circulated on its own.
- Boxed sets that are not not in separate cases going to VIDL should be treated according to the content.
- If each DVD is a separate movie, rehouse the DVDs in separate cases and barcode them separately.
- If the DVDs are episodes in a series leave them in the original case and barcode the case.
Other Situations
If you are processing something which does not conform to these procedures, please see your supervisor.
