>Dear Colleagues,

>I have been asked to investigate the possibility of using compact shelving for part of our collection. I would be interested in hearing from any library that has installed compact shelving: what type of shelving you used; what preparations (pre-conditions) were necessary to install it; how it has worked out; any unforeseen problems that emerged; the approximate cost (if you are permitted to provide that information).
>
>If you considered compact shelving and felt that there were reasons for not using it, I would be interested in that information, too.
>
>Please reply to me directly. If there is strong interest in this topic, I can summarize the findings for this listserv.

>Thanks,
