Subject: Serials Operations

I am collecting data for serials operations activities.  I have put
together a brief questionaire that I hope will get some response.

1. Who selects and purchases serials? Please indicate titles and
departments directly involved.

2. What department receives and checks in periodicals?

3. What department is responsible for filing claims, follow-up of orders
placed, and ordering back issues?

4. Does your library bind periodicals? Complete volumes only? Or
incomplete volumes, too?

5. Does the serials department have its own budget?

6. What is the number of FTE paraprofessionals employed in serials
section?

7. How many active titles does the library subscribe to?
