1 box = ? linear feet



Forgive this pretty basic question, but I was always taught
that one clamshell manuscript box is .4 linear feet, and a
half-box would be .2 linear feet. So a collection of 3 full
size boxes would be 1.2 linear feet; a collection with 2
full size boxes and 1 half-box would be 1 linear feet.

Is this the accepted measurement in other repositories? Are
there other measurements used?

thanx.
