[Michlib-l] Library of Things storage

[Jen Hassell]

Libraryland-

I looked through the Mich-lib archives and didn't see much about
the specifics of storage/containers and shelving for Library of Things
collections.  For those of you who have an LoT, I have some questions.

   - What brand or type or storage have you found the most durable and easy
   to use?
   - Do you prefer soft sided or hard sided containers?  Or do you use both?
   - Do all of your things check out with the container?  Or is the storage
   just for shelving and the thing is removed and checked out separately, like
   a charging cable for example?
   - Does your collection fit onto your existing library shelving?  If not,
   what do you use for displaying the collection?
   - Any cautionary tales of what to avoid?

Thanks for your time!  I'll compile and share the feedback once I get some.
