Separate line items are needed for each different kind of monographic material (i.e. paperback, digicover, pamphlets, custom books, etc.). If you receive more than one invoice for periodicals and monographic materials, then they need to have a separate purchase order number (e.g. 2002per44, 2002per44a).
    No purchase order's will be made for Dissertation/Thesis/Reports.
