[aisle] Moving Books for New Carpet

[Smolka, Matt]

I'm going through the same thing right now.  Our space is getting over the
summer and everything needs to be packed up.  They let me back in the space
last week to prep everything and the custodians are going to be boxing up
the books this week.  Since I had decided to generify while things were
being packed up I had to finish separating everything out.  We had labels
made, I'll add the template here, in two colors.  One for fic and one for
NF.  I'm hoping that for the most part things are pretty close to how I
wanted them, but I guess I won't know until the fall.  Good luck.
