Subject: question about stacking map cases

Hi folks-

I'm new in the field of map librarianship and we are in the process of
moving part of our collection.  We have map cases that stand fifteen
shelves high and others that stand 20 high. Most (but not all) of the
20-high are next to walls.  I can't tell if they are attached or not,
but I think not.

The question I was asked was: is it a safety issue to have the cases 20
shleves high if they aren't near or attached to walls?

Thanks,
Rob
