[DCRM-L] Shelf list card catalog.

[Johnson, Elizabeth L.]

Hello,  At the Lilly Library also maintain a shelf list card catalog 
for many of the same reasons.  The foremost one is for security 
purposes.  We are not fully retrospectively converted so the manual 
shelf list is essential for "shelf listing."
