I switched to Softline (tm) recycled plastic magazine files, 11x9x2--the 2"
being the width.  I like them actually more than the magafiles, except that
they are strictly for "regular" items--the tall things, like ComputerWorld
I'm still using the tall magafiles for (I ordered a *lot*, and still have
plenty to use for that purpose.)  The Softline files are available thru
Highsmith and were on p. 30 of their 1998 catalog (when I last ordered).

Subject: Periodicals Storage

Sometime ago I saw discussion regarding the storage of loose
periodicals.  For years we have used the Magafile Company.  They produce
boxes of various sizes which have a top which keeps the dust out.  If
you have used this company you know that they are extremely slow and
sometimes don't produce at all.  I am looking for an alternative.  How
do others store loose periodicals other than Princeton Files?
Thanks for your help!!
