----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Greetings! I apologize for any cross-posting from GOVDOC-L. This is a call for help with specifically arranging the Map Collection! We are in the process of moving our Government Documents are to another floor to combine with our Map Collection. In addition, we need to designate space for patent material we will be receiving as we have recently been designated a Patent Depository. We are interested in how other Gov Docs have used their space to accomodate material, staff, study areas, reference desk, etc. I am particularly interested in how your map collection is arranged. Currently, my map cases are in a straight line with long tables for patron use. I have 14 cases measuring about 54" wide. I would like to anticipate growth space for 3-4 cases. Please send any hints and/or horror stories! Also any volunteers to help us move :-)!
