Subject: Request for information--Moving library collections
At <URL:http://www.library.yale.edu/preservation/pr_rfps.html> you will find a Request for Information (RFI) for moving the Seeley G. Mudd Library Collections at Yale University. The collection materials to be moved cover a broad scope of media. The collection materials include octavo bound materials, oversized (quarto) and folio sized bound material, special collections, pamphlet boxes and files, government documents, CDs and DVDs, videocassettes, microforms, maps, and a collection of bookplates. There is also a Historical Sound Recordings collection that will need to be moved; it is included as an optional portion of this RFI (Section 5). For that portion of the collection, we are most interested in art handlers or movers with experience relocating audio collections. The due date for this RFI is December 10, 2007. Instructions for where to send responses are in the RFI document. If you need an extension, or have any immediate questions, you may contact me at 203-432-4335 or by email at tara.d.kennedy [at] yale__edu. Tara D.
