How are non-library books, audio & visual items placed in the book drops handled?
Items received through the book drops are routed to the processing department. If the item is owned by another library, clearing room staff routes the item to Adult Services and it is mailed to the owning library. If a non-library item was accidentally placed in the book drop, it will be treated as a donation and may be discarded, transferred, or sent to storage for the next book sale. Library staff is unable to search for a specific item due to the large amounts of items in storage.
