<p class="x_MsoNormal">BPL is adding VOX books to our collection! We are looking at best practices for these awesome books. My cataloging gal and I were wondering if we could get your collective input on the following questions:</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">1. Do you use any sort of zippered bag/pouch for circulation or do they go out like any other book?</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">2. Do you have any sort of agreement/waiver for checkout (similar to Library of Things or tech equipment)?</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">3. Do you send the charger home with the patron, too, or do staff recharge them upon check in?</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Thank you in advance for any information you can provide!</p>
