Floor Jump Bonanza!

With all the book shifting going on in our library, books tend to get caught in the cross-hairs. As a result, it is important to check the floors where books used to be located, especially if the moves have separated some call number letters or worse yet, the book was already miss-shelved before the move.

The example for this post is the call number JF1525.O73 E97 2010 (proper and new location 6th floor) shelved as JZ1525.O73 E97 2010 (on the old location, 5th floor).

J’s can be tricky anyway and usually end up hanging out with other J+another letter's (I once found one with the K’s, but that is another post), but the point I’m trying to make here is always check on both floors of the letter split because somehow, some way, a book will eventually end up miss-shelved there.

Happy Searching!
