Book Search Challenge

The Tompkins-McCaw Library is interested in your opinion about how we organize our Book Stack collection on the second floor.  The books are arranged using Library of Congress Classification, with the majority of our collection in the letter "R" for Medicine.  We currently have our collection arranged with the materials only using one row and starting in the back section of the second floor, like the following diagram:

We would like your feedback on this potential change to our stacks.  To have a fresh experience in mind, please try to locate one of the following books using their call number and report the title at the meeting:

  1. QR46.M425 2007
  2.  R280.C6 C.47 2006
  3.  RK52.M287 2010

Generally, please be prepared to discuss your experience finding books in libraries.
