Subject: RE: Staffing in Serials Depts.

At the Health Sciences Library, University of Washington, we have two
full-time technicians who check in currently received serials.  Check in
takes between 2-4 hours depending on the volume of mail.  We have 3,609
current titles.  We check in government documents.
