Shelf Talk Blog: Library Explainer: Why We Float Collections

Press release from Shelf Talk Blog:

December 2, 2021

Did you know that some of the Library’s collections are floating again?

Or that our floating collections save time and money, decrease hold times and expand the diversity of materials at a branch?

In library terms, “floating” means that certain Library collections – such as mysteries, DVDs and children’s comics — stay at the Library branch they have been returned to instead of being transported back to their original branch (as they would in a traditional Library collection model).
