Re: Moveable shelving



   We are about to install moveable shelving in our archives and will have
to be moving out, and back in, about 7000 linear feet of manuscripts and
other non-book materials.  Would like to hear about anyone's experience in
planning this sort of event: how did you store the boxes during the
installation, and what steps did you take to ensure that everything was
put back in the right order?  Were there any glitches in your plan that
you can caution us about?  Any plans that worked brilliantly and were
simple enough so that outside movers could place boxes correctly?  We are
contracting the move and installation to a private firm.
