***I use "gratis" to indicate the freebies and "Do not claim" or simply
"DNC" for those qualifying. On the other hand, if gratis materials do not
appear regularly, we have no compunction about withdrawing.

Donna,
Why not "Gift" - Do Not Claim!
This is our practice which allows us to know all volumes may not be
complete. Rather than waste time trying to procure missing issues, we
are aware of non-claim item.

Hi Donna,
We simply create a bibliographic record, check-in record, and order
record in our INNOVACQ serials system. On the order screen we insert
the letter g in the vendor field, and on the check-in screen we add a note that
says DO NOT CLAIM.

Hi Donna!
I can't believe that a note that only you or other techs will see, has to
be 'professional' what ever that might be.
It says exactly what anyone needs to know in plain English. I feel sorry
that you have such a small-minded boss! I'm glad I work where I do when I
read some of the stories on this list.

"Do not claim." But tell them to hell with "professional"; that concept most
often interferes with getting the job done.

Donna,
At the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Rasmuson Library, we use "Do not
claim".

Donna Sue-
I don't know if this is any more acceptable, but we simply write "Do not
claim" on the check in cards (yes-we are still using a manual system)
