Thanks, everyone. Seems that we should simply keep putting the issue on the shelves, with extra tattletapes and hope for the best.

Hi Ken,

We put it on the shelf with tattle tape and hope for the best.  Since the Swimsuit issue is now online we haven’t any problems the last few years.

About 6 years ago the issue went missing shortly after being placed on the shelf.

And then came back the following year (with a few pages missing.). J

Subject: [SERIALST] question about the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue

 

Hello!

 

For many years, our library has kept the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue at the Circulation Desk. No one would ever ask for it. So this year we decided to try putting it out with the other Sports Illustrated issues, and made sure that it was tattletaped.

 

Well... within a week, the issue went missing and it's still missing.

 

What do other libraries do with the Swimsuit issue?

 

Thank you,

 

Ken
