Ordering information:
Fine Arts librarians identify the titles they want in this collection when they place their orders. LTS staff does not try to identify if something is an artist's book or if it should be added to the Artists' Book Collection.

Be thoughtful about where the barcode is applied. Generally, do not apply the barcode on the outside front cover as is done with conventional books. Try to be as discrete as possible. The item may be spine labeled as usual, but if the item is very unusual, have Physical Processing run a spine label and attach it to the location flyer with a paper clip (this can be done with the barcode as well) for the Fine Arts staff to apply them as they see fit. If the book needs an MM case, the cataloger can request one as usual. If the book presents an unusual situation, please contact the Fine Arts Library and ask. It's possible that Fine Arts will ask for the book to reach them untouched and they'll do something when they get it. If the book shouldn't go to the The Fine Arts Library does not want Artists' Books to travel to their library on the regular regular truck, ; ask a Fine Arts librarian/staffer to pick it up on their next trip to Olin or walk the book to the library yourself.
