Hi,

We have recently removed compact shelving from our Periodicals floor to create space for a learning commons.  We are considering taking our more popular magazines out of the “Current Periodicals” section and displaying them out in the learning commons area on slanted typed shelving to display them better.

 

I’m wondering about potential storage problems.  We currently keep unbound issues of titles such as Time, Newsweek, etc. until the microfilm reel is received.  For those of you that have the slanted type periodical shelves, how many issues can you store behind the slanted shelves?

 

Thanks,
