Re: Small Collections



Here at the UofU Special Collections, we've always used a two-
tiered system.  Anything that's  a single box or less becomes an
"A" collection.  These are shelved together, with single-item or
couple-o-folders collections being housed together in a box, even
though they are treated like discreet collections, given a register,
and so on.  So physically they are treated like a vertical file, but
bibliographically they still get the same treatments as a collection
of a thousand boxes.
