Currently our community college library has about 50% of its print serial
titles on display in the periodicals section of the library. These are
mostly leisure reading and some subject specific journals. The other 50
percent are housed on bound shelves. We are tossing around the idea of
putting all of our journals that we subscribe to on display. The rationale
is that patrons think we only subscribe to the magazines currently on
display. My feelings are that it would take up precious floor space and
also be a nightmare for shelving purposes. Any insights or suggestions?
Thank you,
