Subject: Purchase Order number on the inside of Serials

Does anyone out there write the PO number on the verso of hardbound
serials (what we call added volumes) every time they are checked in?  
If so, why?  This wasn't done in my previous library, but it is
done where I work now.  I'm wondering if this step can be skipped to
reduce processing time.  The answer I'm finding from the people I work 
with is that "it's always been done that way."

Thanks,
Mykie
