Dear Cheryl,
        We at the University of New Hampshire are in the process of making
the change from alphabetical to classified arrangement for our main
library periodicals.  The science branch libraries have opted to retain
the title arrangement.  We spent many years studying and discussing the
validity of classified arrangement and the procedures for bringing it
about.
