We are also experiencing this at our Library. Like Sleeper Public Library these items are sent in a padded envelope and are to be returned in the same.  I echo their request to please take the time to check before sending items back to the original libraries.

We too are having a problem with our materials being returned without packing.  These items are sent in a padded envelope and are to be returned in the same.  Please take the time to check before sending items back to the original libraries.

I'm the main MelCat person in my library who unpacks, and I'm running into quite a few that aren't packed.  We have a label that says "PACK" in large, bold, all-caps, that's being ignored.  Instead, they're coming back wrapped in rubberbands, which are warping the soft-covered books, and damaging pages.  

Please, please, please, make sure if the library requests that an item (whether it be a book, CD, DVD or anything else) be packed, please honor that request!

Thank you,

Amber L. Hughey
