Libraryland-
I looked through the Mich-lib archives and didn't see much about the specifics of storage/containers and shelving for Library of Things collections. For those of you who have an LoT, I have some questions.
- What brand or type or storage have you found the most durable and easy to use?
- Do you prefer soft sided or hard sided containers? Or do you use both?
- Do all of your things check out with the container? Or is the storage just for shelving and the thing is removed and checked out separately, like a charging cable for example?
- Does your collection fit onto your existing library shelving? If not, what do you use for displaying the collection?
- Any cautionary tales of what to avoid?
Thanks for your time! I'll compile and share the feedback once I get some.
