Occasionally a volume may be received for adding and CLIO shows that some part or all of a multivolume set or serial has been processed for Offsite. If the volume fits into an Offsite run, follow the instructions below. If a volume fits into the run of a non-Offsite location, add as usual.

Note: If a volume needs to be added that has "no call number assigned" in the call number field, consult a supervisor.
