Quarantine

We are currently working to develop an IPM quarantine policy for one
of our historic libraries, which is currently being refurbished and
is scheduled to open to the public in 2015. We are keen to gather
examples of quarantine procedures used by other institutions in
order to give us an idea of the best approach for quarantining
incoming material such as new acquisitions, objects on loan from
other collections and items returned from loan.

Therefore, does anyone have any information, detailing quarantine
procedures in their institution, that they'd be willing to share
with us?
