Libraries often have numerous policies in place to protect collections. A few basic policies are common to all libraries. One of these addresses the proper way to handle materials in the library and at home. The University of California at San Diego has a useful website that includes "The Dos and Don'ts of Videotape Care," "Permanence, Care, and Handling of CDs," "Mutilation of Library Materials," "Shelving Books in the General Collection," and "Proper Handling of Materials for Photocopying," along with a preservation quiz. Many of these links have illustrations and catchy sayings to illustrate their point.
