[ISLMA-Share] New library carpet

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

They just did that to my library this summer (with squares). I boxed
EVERYTHING in paper boxes with lids to label the outside.

I suggest if they are moving entire shelving, get wrap...I wrapped the
bottom two shelves and dollied them out of the library---it saved a lot of
time.

I also suggest weeding BEFORE you move everything. I wish I would have done
this. I was able to sell a lot of things after but would have been nice to
do before.

Lastly, don't move back in too fast. Allow time to make sure the carpet
sticks down...we had a couple of areas that just wouldn't stick so they
came back in to fix it.

Just some thoughts.
