Intralibrary mail moves materials such as books and interoffice correspondence between Library units. Manila interoffice envelopes should be used for Library and Campus departmental mail only.
Preparing and Addressing Interoffice Mail
When using interoffice envelopes to send mail from one library department to another, the department or individual name and room number should be included in the address. Improper addressing of mail will cause missorting and delivery delay. Abbreviations of departments are acceptable when accompanied by a room number. Abbreviations of names are acceptable when accompanied by a department and room number. All mail being sent to a subject specialty library or an affiliated library must have the library’s name, not just the room number within the particular building.
