Oversized books

This query is being posted for a colleague.

The University of Southern Mississippi is planning to establish a
separate shelving area for oversize books contained in the general
circulating collection.  They would like to know how other libraries
define oversize books which are a part of their circulating collection?

If you have long or complicated guidelines that you do not want to post
on the Distlist but are willing to share, please send them to
