Hi Margaret,

I am happy to send photos of our fine press/artist book display areas and storage room to your email address if you like.  When the space was planned, I worked with Campus Facilities Services to address the HVAC issues for the storage area - we also installed industrial shelving as it allows for storage of a greater range of sizes and weight.  We use flat file cabinets for the broadsides and prints.

Best,

Sonja

Subject: [ARLIS-L] shelving and cases for artists books

Hello Wisdom.

I am seeking advice on the types of shelving and storage cases that are used for housing artists' books, and the vendors through which our library may procure these items. We are in the planning stages of developing an artists' books collection, now that space has been freed up in Arts Library for a small special collections area. I'm putting together some budget figures and thus if you can send info about vendors storage / shelving that one can used for housing artists' books, it would be much appreciated.

Thank you.
