Subject: Book ends
Here is a suggestion on book supports for rare books shelving areas: Magnetic Aides, Inc. 133 North 10th Street, Paterson, NJ 07522 (last time I looked) sells two models of wide-profile magnetic book supports. The strong magnet on the bookends' base make them very effective. Their wide profile and absence of a "tongue" make them non-damaging to the tail edges of rare books. I first saw them at the Lilly Library some years back. Phone number for the company is (or was) 201/790-1400.
