Our book move a couple of weeks ago didn’t quite go as swiftly as we’d expected. We slightly underestimated the amount of time it’d take…

This time we’re going to be working on the B/BP (Islamic Religion) and PJ/PK/PL (Arabic/Turkish/Persian Literature) sections. We’re not removing any books, just moving them up to get rid of empty space on the shelves. The extra shelves this frees up will be used to accomodate New Bodleian books, when the New Bod closes.
Here’s a map of our current plans:
