Maybe I missed any later messages, but how have libraries decided on
storing these puzzles?  Our documents and map collections are adjacent
and I'm in charge of both, so that's not an issue, but I'm interested in
physical storage.

Keep in the tubes? (We don't have any place to store realia, unless you
count a few globes, but we can't keep these little cardboard tubes on a
cabinet top or shelf.)
Put them together and discard the tubes (which we do with dust jackets
and map envelopes/covers if we unfold the map and put in drawers)?  We
could encapsulate the solved puzzles in mylar and put a call number
label on the mylar and house with our maps. (I prefer this solution
since I don't want to deal with the tubes.)
Any other creative options people have used?

thanks,
   Mark
