    2. When filling in serial "back volumes missing in other units," retain volumes (numbers, issues, etc.) that are unique to CUL but DO NOT retain additional copies, even if there is more than one incomplete serial run in CUL.
  4. Shelves for completed transfers and reinstatements:
    1. For Rare Annex transfers, see Special Instructions (Procedure #12a#9a) otherwise:
    2. Deliver all unbound serials that are not separately barcoded to Collection Management--Serials, otherwise
