I. General Barcoding Guidelines

  • The barcode should be affixed one-half inch down from and parallel to the top edge of the container, and one-half inch in from the right-hand, opening edge.
  • If containers are lacking, obtain them from the supply closet in Room 111. No clear, hard-sided cases should go to Olin, Uris or Asia.
  • If a caption is lacking, but must be supplied for enumeration/chronology, use the term "tape" or "disc."
  • Include "Warning of Copyright Restrictions" stickers as needed.
  • Any accompanying audio recordings designated for any Annex location will be stored separately and must have a separate container (preferably jewel case) and item record. Add "Disk" to enumeration in item record for the disk.

Audio cassettes or audio discs as main items in a secure manufacturer's case:

1.  Single item: Barcode the manufacturer's case. (Exception: If for Olin, Uris, or Asia, use larger DVD case).

2.  Multiple items: Barcode the manufacturer's case only. Do not barcode individual cassettes or their containers. Be sure to adjust the "PIECES" count on the item record. (Exception: If for Olin, Uris, or Asia, use larger DVD case).

Audio cassettes or audio discs as main items without a manufacturer's case:

1.  Each cassette or disc should have its own plastic container.
