Re: Small Collections



Frankly we've had some problems in combining small
collections.   Incompatible materials; users complaining
they can't find "x" because they open the box and see only
"y" ...  I think that, yes, the average miscellany should go
into a vertical file until you have enough to make a collection
or to provide access.   But there are often small 1 or 2 items
which are worth doing as a single collection.
