Use recycle paper balled up to hold books in place in boxes so they don't shift. (We had a snowball party with life skills students to help do this task.)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Use different colored paper for different sections, i.e. pink = nonfiction, green = fiction, etc.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
Label shelves so the exact shelf is put back in it's exact place. (I had 4 reference shelves put back in the wrong spot and it was a lot of resizing shelves to get books to fit.) Maybe even draw a map.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
