Challenge: The
Elizabeth Huth Coates Library from
Trinity University is continuously
evolving with a result that library
shelving is more than ever an important
concern. Consequently, the Library
was facing major space problems as
their existing Library Bureau shelving
was used to full capacity.
Objective: With
a growing volume of educational documentation,
the Elizabeth Huth Coates Library
was searching for an economic way
to maximize its existing library
space and incorporate the existing
shelving into a high-density mobile
solution.
Solution: To
help Trinity University improve
its organization and optimize its
library space, the Elizabeth Huth
Coates Library incorporated its existing
library shelving into Montel’s unique powered WIRED high-density mobile systems. By utilizing mobile shelving, WIRED occupied 62% of the previous library shelving space, which reduced 520 square feet of space for needed library services and functions.
