PLACEMENT OF CALL NUMBER

Call numbers should be written on the page immediately following the book’s cover. In instances when the first page is black, or some other dark color, place a white adhesive label on the page and write the call number on it. If this page has artwork, maps, or writing that covers the call number area, go to the next available right-hand page.

Print call number in book as follows:

• At least ½ inch down from top of page
• At least ½ inch in from the left side of page 

PLACEMENT OF BARCODES

Barcodes should be placed on the books front cover.

Because of the Self-Checkout Reader, barcodes must be placed on the page horizontally:

• At least 1 inch down from top of cover 
• At least 1 inch in from the left side of cover
