Manuscript End-processing supplies (database)

This report generated from the Manuscript Supplies (Access) Database, shows all supplies ordered by the Manuscript section up to May 3, 2024. It is periodically updated, but can also be updated on request. This report gives locations for most of the supplies ordered.

The Technical Services Librarian in Acquisitionsorders all preservation processing supplies for the Technical Services Department, and the Administrative Assistant orders all other kinds of supplies. See their website explaining the process. Some general supplies, like facial tissue and plastic bins can be obtained by directly emailing the Administrative Assistant in the Librarian's office. There is a separate form for preservation supplies, and for office supplies. You can check the Preservation Supplies Order form responses, but you cannot check the responses for office supplies, because that could compromise the privacy of some individuals who place orders for personal needs.
