When a monographic gift book is first unpacked, insert a Gift Routing Slip (see Susan to obtain) and either give to Susan, or follow this procedure

• Write the date on the routing slip, next to “Date rec'd.”
• Search ALEPH by title.
• If UMass Amherst does not hold the title, check “Title not in collection.”
• If UMass Amherst holds the title, check “Library already has another COPY/EDITION” as appropriate.
• Check in the upper right of the item record display to see how many times the existing copy or edition has been checked out, and write that number in the gift routing slip next to “Number of check-outs.”
• Place book with filled-out routing slip on the “GIFTS: NEED SELECTOR DECISION” shelves
