[Publib] book drop carts

[Jo Ann Potenziani]

We have the kind of bins with the depressible bottoms and a liner.  The
floating bottom keeps clerks from tumbling head-first into the bin to
retrieve books on the bottom, and the liner keeps small items from
slipping into book limbo (at least it's supposed to, and I don't think
we've lost anything THAT way).  We like them.
HTH,
JoAnn

We have found that the clerks who empty the book drops have a hard time
with 
the basic model. Their backs get pretty sore leaning over into the bin
to get 
the books out. The float trays (the sprung bottoms) are very helpful,
although 
occassionally a thin book gets caught between the float tray and the
bin.
