<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>At Wheaton
College we have had experience with two vendors for compact/moveable shelving.
The first foray was with Nordplan. The quality of the product, especially for
materials housed in a circulating collection was not at the level needed. We
actually had a range tip and create a domino effect. We went through the costly
expense of replacing all of the shelving with SpaceSaver. We have been pleased.
This shelving is used in our general collection and our special collections. We
have tens-of-thousands of feet of shelving using SpaceSaver. We have a mixture
of mechanical and electric assist. Both have worked flawlessly, something we
couldn’t have said before. In the Special Collections we have cantilever
and post and rail. Our book shelving is 53’ long (semi-trailer length)
and works very well. The installation is solid and our experience has been
great. Our vendor is Bradford Systems.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
