Library moving

Keep the collection plan connected to the room layout.

Coordinate library furniture, freestanding shelving and boxed contents across Orange County and Los Angeles County. BMG’s agreed physical moving work follows the inventory, sequence and placement plan approved by your library team.

Define furniture, shelving and contents separately

Furniture and work areas

Inventory reading tables, chairs, service desks, staff workstations and ordinary office contents. Use the approved destination layout to agree disassembly, transport and placement.

Freestanding shelving

Review shelving dimensions, components, condition and access. Define any agreed disassembly and reassembly work; fixed shelving and building work require a separate review.

Boxed collection contents

Have library staff define the collection sequence and destination identifiers. Agree who packs, labels, releases and receives each group, including any reshelving work included in the scope.

Agree collection order and the staff handoff

  1. Map the destinations. Identify rooms, shelving zones and the order in which each area needs to be available.
  2. Define the labels. Have library staff set shelf or collection-range identifiers and packing instructions before containers are filled.
  3. Assign the work. Agree the packing owner, container quantities, release and receipt contacts, and any reshelving responsibilities.
  4. Review each phase. Reconcile moved groups and furniture placement with your library lead and record outstanding items before the next handoff.

Identify rare books, archives, fragile materials and special collections separately. Their handling, environmental requirements and specialist providers must be reviewed before they are included in a moving plan. Library staff retain responsibility for collection decisions and patron records.

Bring the layout and the collection sequence

Share furniture and shelving counts, approximate boxed-content quantities, access restrictions and target dates. Use room and collection identifiers rather than patron information in the general moving plan. Confirm the scope and any phased access windows after the walkthrough.
