[Genealib] Cataloging Genealogy Materials

[Kristie Boucher]

I wasn't saying *only* use USPS state abbreviations. But there was some discussion on this thread about state abbreviations...using U for Utah...and abbreviations for all the "M" states. I was only stating that on the line of the label where you label the state, why not  use the USPS system. Then you can still have call number or cutter number or collection abbreviations on the label as well.
