I was going to say it's no biggie, just another predictable link in this chain... but then I thought of the PN aisle in the Ref Stacks that is almost empty now, and I got a little nostalgic for, like, 2003 - 2005 when I was in college...
Anyway, this one had to sit out behind the Reference Desk for a couple weeks while they finished construction on the new office cubes in Tech Services, and then for us staffers to finish our move-in and settle down. It finally got pulled back to the Cataloging Dept this afternoon (and gave me a reminder that I need to teach the students how to build better carts... loose arrangements means capsizing going around the corner of the art gallery! Thank god the GTU taught me to make them snug on each shelf).
Incidentally I met with the Cataloging staff today to discuss a disk project they're working on -- reuniting CD-ROMS with their books in the stacks (previously the CDs were kept in a case behind the Circ desk). We discussed how to proceed with the CDs tied to Ref items marked for discard and to keep... they are graciously waiting until we're finished with the discard project.
Which I ran some numbers for, and I'm at least 45% through -- almost half! Maybe we'll finish by the end of summer. If I count the Ref Annex, I'm more like 70-80% finished, but I didn't calculate those numbers.
Well I hope all 270 volumes of this one goes to a good home... and not the dumpster.
