As a supervisor, I also use the date stamp to sense if we are processing our materials in a timely fashion. We treat pocket parts and other supplement releases as time-sensitive materials.

I believe that's the reasoning behind our practice too. You never know if a publisher is going to put all the needed info on the front.

[SERIALST] Pocket parts

To all the law libraries out there: When you check-in pocket parts, do you property stamp each piece or just put them in the books "as is?"
