     We in the SIO Library found that using the kind of date due slips
     ordinarily afixed inside books is not a good thing to use on maps; the
     slips hang up on other maps in drawers and tear when maps are
     retrieved or filed. Thus, we went to a stamp maker and had a replica
     date-due stamp made.  This has worked well; circulation staff just
     stamp the back of maps and then stamp the actual due date between the
     lines.

     For those of you who do circulate maps, what do you use for a date
     due slip? I don't seem to find one that is somewhat
     preservation-minded? (I realize that if you really want to not harm
     the map, you don't circulate it, but if we can get past that).

     Thanks, Arlyn
