Subject: Arranging academic periodicals

Hello,

I'm seeking wisdom from anyone with experience in arranging serials in an
academic library.  My library is small-to-medium (approx. 17,000 students)
and we're renovating and re-arranging right now.  The issue of a
"periodicals floor" has been raised--i.e., grouping all periodicals on a
single floor of the library.  Some of us favour this arrangement, while
others feel that it's best to keep serials together with their LC subjects
on separate floors.  I'd welcome any insight into this decision from those
with more experience.

Please feel free to reply to me individually, and if there's interest I'll
post to the list.

Many thanks,
Karen Munro (Portland State University)
