Hello Tina,

Our bound journals do not leave the library. As our optometry school was founded in 1904, we have a historical collection of vision journals, many of which are irreplaceable. Within our group of vision science libraries, ours is sometimes the only copy of a journal and, perhaps surprisingly, we do regularly get requests for copies of older articles. That being said, students are able to make copies of articles and can scan them for free. And we will scan articles for faculty and for other libraries.

Hi all,

Do you have a default price for lost volumes of bound periodicals?  Do you loan them out?

We loan ours via ILL and when they don't come back,  we need to supply a price to our billing staff. But these things are usually old, irreplaceable, and lack comparables to base a price on.

I'm thinking either set a standard price per volume or no more lending. I'd like to know what others do. I'd also like to know what your default price is,  if you have one, as we need to bill for a couple that went lost.

Sincerely,

Tina Buck
