Hello all,
Here at Bolton Institute, we plan to reorganise our Counter
area in the Summer. We have involved an ergonomist - an extremely
worthwhile experience, which I would recommend to anyone about
to reorganise work areas or purchase furniture.
It appears that we should have a narrower Counter - to lessen the
constant reaching across, with books. I am looking, ideally, for
something around 60 cm (24 in.) deep. This is slightly less than the
standard size offered by suppliers, e.g. Gresswell, Reska. Initial
enquiries indicate that although this size can be made, the cost
may be doubled!
Has anyone already got a narrower counter? If so, are you happy
with it?
Also, has anyone experience of any other suppliers of Counters -
even non-library counters - who may be able to provide a narrower
Counter?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
