Subject: Re: New "Map" from NASA - the 2 puzzles

Thanks to Mary, John, and Debbi for the ideas.  I'm mostly interested a
location that's clearly designated in the catalog so anyone can find
them easily, and we don't have any realia or 3D ephemera collections in
maps or docs (although we have a couple of floor globes and a couple of
desk-top globes).

Since our Federal Docs collection is adjacent to the map collection,
we've decided, at least for now, to keep them in the tubes in the Docs
collection placed in a pamphlet box on the shelf in SuDoc order.  We
have various other places on the SuDoc shelves where we use pam boxes to
stabilize a group of thin books/pamphlets when they fall together in
call number order.  There are some thin books adjacent to the map
puzzles that we can put in the pam box, too, to keep from wasting our
valuable shelf space.
