Subject: Re: [SERIALST] to class or not to class periodical collection

It is certainly possible to classify periodicals and shelve them by LC call
number without interfiling them with the monographs. As long as the catalog
(OPAC location) and building signage is clear as to which area is
periodicals and which is books, they can still be as separate as before.
