June 8 shifting update

The long process that started last summer is mostly done!  Today, the rest of the K's have been moved to the third floor in their proper sequence.  This completes the shift of the collection identified in the planning documents from last year.  In summary:

Main Stacks starts on 1st floor and includes A - E740. 
Main Stacks continue on 3rd floor from E 740 - Z.  (There is a small set of R - RA 399 in the lower level awaiting space on third) 
121 boxes of books sent to Better World Books with more on the way I'm sure
The Aux and Aux Ref collections in the lower level both go in the same direction

Future plans include:

"stretching" out the legal and gov docs collection  (these were rather hastily moved last summer)
Tidying up the juvenile collections
Tidying up legal reference

June 6 updates

Good news. Starting today, the K books will move up to the third floor where they belong.  We backshifted some of the M's and L's and created sufficient space for the K's.  This will probably take about a week to complete.  Major kudos to Tiffany and Trevor for the bulk of the shifting to create the space.
