Flag removal

The following flags should remain in the books through the Marking Room for routing purposes, so please do not remove them after cataloging. 

Please remove all other flags after cataloging.

 

Some of the following flags (marked with *) are simply blank slips of paper. Others are printed out and/or copied onto the correct color of paper as needed.
