Hi Melissa,
I see what you mean. Ours
was a small county library, and we just did the Federal and California codes
which to me were bad enough! After an hour into the stamping and removing and
putting them in, I too was wondering what would be a better use of my time. :)
Good Luck!

Hi Brenda,
Currently we are stamping each one also, but we now have 4 branches. Each
branch gets a copy of the state codes for every state and they are all
processed at the main branch. The question was asked whether our time couldn't
be better spent doing something other than all that stamping. :) I'm curious to
see what others outside our little world think.

HI Melissa,
At my old Law library, we
used to property stamp/date stamp each new supplement part that came in. It
wasn't fun, but at least we knew which one was current and already added to
the catalog.
Hope this
helps,
Brenda

To all the law libraries out there: When you check-in pocket parts, do you
property stamp each piece or just put them in the books "as is?"
Thanks,
