Policies & Procedures for UF Library's Offsite Storage: Sending to FLARE

Procedures for sending material to FLARE

We have different procedures for Transfers, Last Copies, and Gap Fills. Last Copies and Gap Fills are considered donations. Do not use the FLARE Transfer Procedures for Last Copies and Gap Fills. 

  • Transfers: Transfers are usually a very large number of items that require a mover and usually include a signed MOU and payment. The FLARE Transfer Procedures are used for transfers. Please contact Tabatha Pursley if you are considering a FLARE Transfer. 
  • Last Copies: Items sent under FLARE's Last Copy Program are considered a donation. What you do with these in your catalog is up to your institution/library. Since they are a donation, we process them in with a FLARE barcode. Please do not use the FLARE Transfer Procedures for Last Copies. Please see the Last Copy Program subtab for more information on how to send Last Copies to FLARE. 
  • Gap Fills: Gap fills are also considered a donation. Again, what you do with these in your catalog is up to your library. Since they are a donation, we process them in with a FLARE barcode. Please do not use the FLARE Transfer Procedures for Gap Fills. Please see the Gap Fills subtab for more information on how to send Gap Fills to FLARE.
