Moira,
Here at Bobst (NYU) Library we get many books accompanied by cd-roms.
We have posted our policy for handling this type of material to our
web site at:
http://www.nyu.edu/library/bobst/research/tsd/cat/bkcdrom.htm
Please be advised that this policy was drawn up in 1997, but should
still reflect our current policy.
I hope this helps,
Cheers,
Bill

> Hello, wise colleagues:
>
> Recently we've received books for the library that come with their own
> CD-ROMs (e.g., Business and Legal Forms for Photographers, Medieval
> Architecture in Western Europe, Director Closeup). I want to get these
> books into circulation, but currently have no policy on lending CD-ROMs.
> Please help with me this!
>
> 1. Do you have similar items in your collection?
>
> 2. Do you lend the CD-ROM with the book or is it an in-library use item?
>
> 3. Are there different lending periods for books with CD-ROMs? Different
> patrons/borrowers? Different fines?
>
> 4. Do you barcode the CD-ROM separately from the book? Or with the same
> barcode? Or do you barcode it at all?
>
> 5. Have you had any experience trying to replace a lost or damaged CD-ROM
> that came with a book? Were you able to replace the item at all? At what
> cost?
>
> Please reply to me directly at the address below. I'll summarize for the
> list if requested. Thanks in advance for all your wise counsel!
