[LM_NET] number of books in a library

[Patsy Wilber <bpwilber@CENTURYTEL.NET>]

Dear colleagues: A good number of years ago, I seem to recall an
unscientific method of measuring shelves or inches of books on shelves
in order to determine the approximate number of books in a library
collection; a collection which has no shelf list, no automation, no
documentation to support that approximate number. Am I imagining this? I
have searched the lm net archive to no avail.  If this rings a bell with
you, please respond privately to me at my email address:

    bpwilber@centurytel.net

Thanks in advance for any help you might give.
