Barcoding Microforms?? Lucy Barron 06 Feb 1991 22:59 UTC

Just out of curiousity.  Has anyone out there barcoded their microforms? If so,
why?  Where did you put it?  On the microfilm box?  And what about microfiche?

I am interested because here at Washington University we are reevaluating which
collections we previously did not barcode will now be barcoded. We may like
to indicate such things as temporary location, lost, etc. via the item records.
Such issues also apply to microform collections; however, I have never heard
of anyone doing this.  I would be interested in hearing anyone's experiences
with this topic.
