Oh wise ones: This is my first year at a new library (middle school) WITHOUT automation. Since we are hoping to automate soon (next year?), I feel it is important to do a good inventory. However, I have never done one using a shelflist, so I am relatively clueless here! Basically, I have 3 questions: 1. How long should it take to manually inventory about 10,000 books? (It's just me-no aides!) 2. How do/did you mark shelflist cards while performing inventory to identify missing books? 3. How do you define "closed" during inventory? (No checkouts? No students at all? Only students with teachers?) I have checked the archives but am looking for a little more help than I found there. If you have any other tips for me, they would be much appreciated. Please reply to me personally. Thanks so much!
