Subject: [ARLIS-L] Need advice about spine labelling
What alternatives to the traditional spine labels are available for art books of value? I have cataloged a private library of some 4,000 books and catalogues. My employer is reticent to use the call number spine label for fear of de-valuing the collection. These are not rare books, and none of them date back more than 30 years.
Many thanks,
