-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Broken map drawers Date: Tue, 10 Aug 2004 13:20:35 -0600 From: Ilene Raynes <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> ------------------ The Map Library at the University of Colorado is in the midst of a large collection shift and we're quickly discovering that many of our map drawers are in need of repair (they stick and/or are hard to close and open). We've called in facilities management and they've managed to make a few drawers a bit better, but many are still in bad shape. Has anyone had experience getting their map drawers fixed? If yes, who did you call? Has anyone ordered new wheels for map drawers? How about ordering new drawers to fit existing cabinets? If yes to either of these questions, who did you contact for these services? Finally, has anyone tried good old-fashioned oiling w/WD40? We'd of course take the maps out of the cases before trying this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks- Ilene Ilene Raynes Jerry Crail Johnson Earth Sciences and Map Library University of Colorado - Boulder Campus Box 184 Boulder, CO 80309 (303) 492-4487 [log in to unmask]
