[PADG:1062] ILL Labels

[Paula De Stefano <destefan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My ILL office is now using removable (adhesive) labels on books 
borrowed from other institutions for interlibraryb loan. These 
labels carry information regarding the loan period, etc. Having 
only just noticed this recently, I don't have any particulars 
except that the ILL librarian assures me that they have been 
pronounced "pH safe with little, if any, residue."

I plan on getting manufacturer info from her, but in the 
meantime, does anyone else know about this? I'm told that many 
ILL offices use these adhesive labels unless an institution has 
specifically requested they not be used.
