LABELING SOUND RECORDINGS
 

For all LPs, add label to the top left hand corner and barcode directly next to it on the right.

If the sound recording has been placed in an archival sleeve inside an outer plastic sleeve, place the label and barcode in their usual positions on the outside of the plastic sleeve. If necessary, cut the top of the plastic sleeve to be flush with the top of the archival sleeve.
