Good afternoon!
I would love to hear from anyone who has
ever done a Library move/renovation. We are in the
preliminary planning stages and would love any feedback and
insight from your own experiences. We are also looking for
resources where we might be able to rent mobile book
trucks for a period of time to move books from point A
to point B.
Our library consists of about 11k items,
including books, magazines, yearbooks, scrapbooks, pamphlets,
manuals, hardcover books fiction/non-fiction. The oldest and
most fragile books of our collection are actually boxed
individually. While renovation is taking place, the items
will be stored/staged in a temporary location within our
Museum.
Feel free to email me directly off list to
share any pearls of wisdom.
Thank you in advance!
