These were on 5x8 cards kept in files in departmental libraries and in Serials Binding. Putting them on the serials holding record makes them reliably available. We make a spec for each new serial that we catalog. However, for title changes, we may not be able to fill in all the information, since we do not know the binding colors for the old title unless the old title had a binding spec in the DRA record. The spec is created on DRA in a 994 field.
Departments perform their own binding tasks.
Bound material is delivered to a shelf just beyond Nick Vincelli's door. Volumes go to Marking and Pasting, then direct to the shelves.
