card catalog trivia question



Hello,

For a proposal I am working on to have a 3x5-card newspaper index converted
to a computer database, I need to estimate about how many cards are in the
typical shelf list drawer. I don't feel like counting, and my cataloging
department doesn't have an estimate on hand.

Does anyone who might have done such a project in the past have a guess?

Thank you,
Heidi
