[Genealib] Why do you rearrange your collection?

[Tracy Luscombe]

I will tell you why I don't rearrange into another order. Because the my
co-workers, who seem to have a mental block as soon as patron mentions a
genealogy related term, would never be able to help the patron when I'm
not around.

Subject: [Genealib] Why do you rearrange your collection?

Hello,

I would like to rearrange our genealogy collection.  We have it in
normal dewey call number order.  Nothing is pulled out into separate
areas.  We are going to move the collection to a bigger area.  When we
do I would like to have the collection rearranged.  I know that most of
the genealogy collections out there are rearranged in some way.  I don't
want to know how because we've discussed that recently.  I want to know
why.  

Thanks for any help,
Cheryl Smith
