SUBSCRIPTION
PLAN Items – Return to LMS
Subscription
Plan (S-Plan) books are easily identified by their bright yellow spine labels.
NOTE: **NEVER stamp Subscription Plan books
and DO NOT check them out to CEN or an NL unit’s “xxx-Discard” account in
Symphony Workflows.
- Send all
surplus and damaged S-Plan books directly to the LMS Float Team.
- Attach a
brief note to individual copies regarding any damage.
- When pulling surplus copies of titles that HPL has both as regular HPL copies (white spine labels) and S-Plan copies for possible withdrawal, it is preferable to send in S-Plan copies first rather than regular HPL copies if condition is comparable. The Float Team may redistribute surplus S-Plan items rather than withdrawing and returning them to the supplier, depending on system-wide needs.
LMS
Division staff will handle ALL S-Plan withdrawal tasks for damaged items and surplus copies
being returned to the supplier.
WET, MOLDY, BUGS,
etc.
Items
that are wet, moldy, mildewed, or contain insects or other biological matter
(blood, etc.) should be handled with latex gloves.
