[Publib] Chairs for browsing low shelves

[Kathleen McCorkle]

I had a similar one but they are very low
8 to 10 inches.

The folding Garden Kneeler Bench depicted in this advertisement seems to me 
to address this issue.  Target is only one firm carrying this kind of 
gardening device.    James B. Casey - My own views

Subject: [Publib] Chairs for browsing low shelves

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a chair, specifically for elderly 
users, to make browsing the lower shelves easier.  I was hoping there was a 
chair similar to a kick stool out there, but haven't found one.  We are 
currently using a rolling desk chair, but were hoping for something that 
would lock in place when someone sits down.  A kick stool works for me (and 
my arthritic knees) but isn't too appealing to most patrons.
