Subject: [Michlib-l] Special Collection Review

Hi all,

We've had our special collection for about 5ish years now and are in the process of reviewing our policies. I would love to see what everyone else is doing please!
  • What is your limit on # of special collection items that can be checked out per patron?
  • How often do they have to sign a lending agreement/liability waiver?
  • What do you do about long billed special collections items? (ex: pursuit of return, etc).
Also, I'd like to see your policy language if possible.

Please and thank you!
