We have about 1600 current journal titles and one staff member doing
check-in and claiming. All journals are shelved by Circulation. Once
checked in, they are sent to Circulation for shelving. We have a daily,
 and a current year display, besides the backfiles.  Volumes returned from
bindery are also shelved by Circulation.

Sharon, At Northwest Missouri State U., I am one of 3 full time staff members
that work 7:30 am to 12 midnight.  We do whatever shelving the student workers
don't get done in addition to the same functions you do.  We try to leave the
shelving for the kids, but it doesn't always work out.  It boils down to "it's
my responsibility to do it, one way or another."  Oh, the work day is spread
over 3 shifts.  Hope this helps.

We have approx. 3500 serials subscriptions.  One staff member is
responsible for check-in, claiming, and union list maintenance.  Current
issues are processed by this staff member and then sent to our periodicals
circ. desk where students are responsible for tattletaping and shelving in
the currents collection (closed stacks).  Another staff member is
responsible for student supervision and circulation of periodicals.  A
third staff member prepares materials for bindery, in-house and
commercial, and is back-up to public services (student supervision and
circ.)  Cataloging maintains a shelflist yet and must check-in bound
volumes before they come back to us for students to shelve.
