Like Martha I also am not able to move again -- it took me almost a year 
to move from my rented house back into this house that is already paid 
for, and months for each of the moves I had to do from my offices when 
the building was being renovated and when I retired.

There are companies which specialize in moving libraries.  They know how 
to keep things in order from shelf to shelf.  I suppose they could also 
move record libraries.  Thus it is always better to have shelving up in 
the new place.
