Moving and reorganizing an library/ Marianna Wells
This book provides the basic framework on how to plan, design, prepare and implement the move of a small or medium sized library from the time of the project's inception to its completion. Guidance and practical tips on planning the project cover all areas, including how to arrange a serviceable library layout and how to organize functional relationships around reference sources, electronic resources, catalogue assistance, and staff stations. A variety of moving methods, taking into account the different needs of libraries, are fully assessed. In addition, the book proposes a method for assessing collection size in libraries with subjects that expand at different growth rates, and introduces a technique for translating this data into shelf space allocation in preparation for the move of the collection. A case study shows how to utilize a database management system for moving a journal collection and considers the important issue of the impact of change on personnel.
