[Nhcoll-l] Alcohol bottle trays

[Callomon,Paul]

Folks,

Does anyone know of a fluid collection in which loose bottles and jars have been placed in long, narrow open-top boxes or trays on open shelving? We are considering doing this, in order to make our collection both safer and easier to maintain. I know many Entomology collections arrange 4- and 6-dram vials in long racks (we do this too), but I haven't seen the same thing done for larger bottles and jars.
