[Nhcoll-l] Labels

[Callomon,Paul]

Folks,

We are starting work on rehousing our entire alcohol-preserved mollusk collection, comprising about 50,000 bottles. For many years we have used medical tape to label jars and lids, writing on it with sharpies. This works pretty well, as the tape stays stuck to glass or plastic for over 40 years. However, for the next round of rehousing I'd prefer to use pre-cut labels for the sake of neatness and speed.
Does anyone know of a suitable label? It can be cloth or paper, and should ideally be available in various sizes and shapes. I'm especially keen on finding a good circular label for the caps of regular 4- and 6-dram screw-top vials.
