Hi April,
We keep our print journals in alphabetical order on our shelves, as it is easier for patrons to locate them that way.
Just my two cents, Patty

Subject: [SERIALST] Chronological vs. ABC?
Hi all,
Would you say it is better to keep a title that keeps changing their name slightly in alphabetical order or in chronological order? Specifically, we have a title that started out as:
"Education and Training in Mental Retardation."
"Education and Training in Mental Retardation in Developmental Disabilities"
"Education and Training in Developmental Disabilities"
"Education and training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities"
That is the chronological order. If we were to put them in ABC order, it would go:
"Education and training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities"
"Education and Training in Developmental Disabilities"
"Education and Training in Mental Retardation."
"Education and Training in Mental Retardation in Developmental Disabilities"
Which is better? Thanks!
