Ok so here's what everyone seems to agree on for DVD cleaning and shelving. (BTW Jen I'm stealing your notes on this.)
1. Sort dvds/cases by Genre
2. Put in order (A-Z; A on top)
3. Remove and clean/flap discs
4. Clean cases
5. Put clean cases and disks on cart, with discs on the top shelf and cases on the bottom.
6. Put the dvds and cases away (make sure you don't forget this part :P )
Notes:
* Genres need to stay together
* If there are a lot of stacks of the same genre they need to be divided into smaller stacks, however these smaller stacks should not be A-Z, but instead be divided into three sections. The first should be A-F, then G-N, and finally O-Z.
Jen commented to Josh that the reason she does this is:
It takes less time to make bigger piles. She collects the entire genre and then when sorting does the 2-3 sorting piles, and sort them into the smaller stacks and puts them in order. It also saves time when shelving in circulation.
Also, PLEASE stop bringing Childrens audio up to the second floor workroom. We only rewind their cassettes. We do not clean their CDs.
