Based on data from over 100 library moves, [this book] is written from the perspective of today's library, with added guidance for dealing with large holdings of electronic resources, as well as space limitations in storage and on the shelves. There is also updated coverage of average book widths, using project management software, and moving archival materials, as well as special guidelines for small libraries.
