----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Hi, I am new on the list, and also new to the area of map librarianship. How do some of you veterans feel about applying labels (with call #) directly onto maps to be shelved in flat steel file drawers? Are there problems with the labels drying up and falling off? Does the thickness of the label have a cumulative effect when stacking? Thanks for your input. ********************************** Annette D.
