Compact Library Storage

Compact library storage helps consolidate books, periodicals, and other media; eliminate wasted aisle space; and free up space for modern uses.

Compact shelving consists of library bookstacks and other shelves on rails that are stored close together most of the time. That means that every available inch of space is available for convenient, safe, and efficient storage. Access is safe and convenient due to dynamically generated aisles — and patrons and staff can create those aisles on demand with mechanical-assist cranks or electronic controls.

This brief video illustrates the concept. Contact us to see how it can be applied on a smaller scale in libraries, and at a similar scale in large off-site library storage facilities.

Our storage experts are trusted partners to library staff, design / build firms, community groups, and others who want to free up space in existing facilities or maximize space in new library construction.
