What to do with an old card catalog
This is a follow-up to my last post.
From the Ann Arbor.com news article:
Next stop for the majority of the card catalogs is U-M Property Disposition on North Campus, where the university will attempt to sell the old catalogs one by one. Courant said he isn’t quite sure who is in the market for these pieces of library nostalgia. But, he added, “if I had the room in my house, I’d buy one.”
I’d also love to have one but I don’t have any room in my tiny little house. I don’t think they’ll have any trouble selling these lovely card catalogs, library chic is all the rage these days – as evidenced by Etsy’s Circulate and Renew Spotlight post and the quantity of Apartment Therapy card catalog posts.

Wouldn’t it be fun to arrange all the bottles and make little labels for the drawers?
