Binding Schedule


In the Web version of the on-line catalog or Sabio, the staff mode, to find out if a journal or periodical was sent to the bindery, go into the Catalog. Search for the title you are interested in. Click on the link for that title. Click on Latest Received. Look for the notation, TO BIND. The date following TO BIND denotes the date the shipment was being prepared to be shipped to the bindery. A shipment is sent to the bindery once a month. These issues are unavailable. Journals/periodicals requiring rush binding are sent out with the next monthly shipment. The rush binding shipment cycle is approximately 7 days. Non-rush shipments are at the bindery for approximately 30 days.

Example: Issues sent to the bindery will be designated by the notation TO BIND in the corresponding boxes.

Example of Checkin Information

When the shipment has returned, the books are processed and the status is changed from TO BIND, to BOUND. The date in the box then reflects the date the shipment returned.
