More Reference books on the move

Lots more Industry Surveys this week.

Checked w/the business librarian & yes! Need to keep these Industry Surveys. She also absolved me from mending them pic.twitter.com/0kKXv4k9a8

Plus! Such a nice collection of Historical Abstract of the US. I'm gonna miss these buddies when they reside in the stacks.

This feels like a milestone because I love grabbing one and riffing on its usefulness when training the new student workers. I always say, "Nearly any imaginable statistic you could ever need is in this little ditty."

Cart 100

Yesterday was a milestone... Cart 100 of books on the move from Ref to the Stacks. This cart was composed of H call numbers... still trucking through the business reference books.

With any luck, we'll have everything moved before I go to Prague on May 14!

Catching a breath to reflect in the H section

We're making incredible progress moving the Reference print collection to that stacks thanks to all my colleagues' joint efforts in Cataloging and Access Services. On Wednesday I was struck by the vast empty black shelving as I walked into the room.

This week the Ref student workers packed up no less than 14 carts of Reference books for Cataloging to work their record magic on, covering call numbers N31 H84 v. 1 -- HN 49 V64 A47 2008.

It's starting to move so fast I am worried about emotional fall out.

I also wonder if it is time to tell our external stakeholders (students and faculty) what in the world is going on... time for a blog post on Gleeson Gleanings?
