marker pens

[Vicki Powys <>]

Does anyone in this group have information on recommended archival labellin=
g
for CD-Roms?  I've heard that stick-on labels should not be used for CD-Rs
in your wildlife sound archive, but I'd also heard that a fine marker pen,
used minimally, was OK.

But the latest rumour I've heard is that marker pens are NOT OK, and that
the ink will eventually eat through the plastic.  Is this true?  One of our
major department stores is now selling a "special CD marker pen", supposedl=
y
archival, but I've not seen it.

Any comments?
