Mina and others,

I am interested to know what steps do you take to check the license agreement
on the cdroms you add to your collection? We have found that there are
sometimes restrictions for libraries to loan the cdroms. In these instances we
do not add the cdrom to our loan collection.

Subject: CDs accompanying journal issues.

Lilah,
We separate the CDs from the journal issues, sending them to our Media Center
(in the library) where they are shelved using an accession number (all CDs from
one journal title shelve together). We put a label inside the issue that says
"Accompanying [CD-ROM or whatever] located in Media Center. Call number: xxxxx"
We put a label on the CD case (which we usually supply ourselves in the
interest of filing) "Accompanies periodical with call number xxxxxxxxxx". This
means anyone wanting to use the CD must check it out separately in Media. Gives
us a bit more control and protection for the CDs. Can't guarantee it's the best
way, but that's what we do here at SDSU. Mina
