Eric,

You could purchase record checking/periodical check-in cards and keep
track of your incoming issues 'the old-fashioned' way.  These are
available from a variety of sources such as Demco and Brodart.

Subject: [SERIALST] Small Library

I am aetting up a small library and I was wondering if anyone had any
suggestions about managing my periodicals.  I am running everything off
of
spreadsheets right now...a OPAC is in the works for the beginning of
next
year.  I have a excel list of all my periodicals but I have no way to
verify which ones I have actually recieved each month.  Does anyone have

any ideas about how I should set this up?
