rearranging things in the office

The former "book nook" now serves as an office and storage space for the library. In order to utilize space more efficiently, Mrs. N. and I spent some time today rearranging furniture. Once we got the go ahead to leave the old bookshelves in place (turns out they shouldn't be a fire hazard after all) we tried to move the black file cabinet to a new location...tried that is until we found it pretty much unmoveable. Combination of weight and friction against the carpet caused me to rethink the idea and opt to move the lighter beige cabinet instead. We now have the photocopier plugged in in the office between the door and the hefty black cabinet. More than a few dust bunnies were uncovered when we moved the cabinets around requiring a little vacuum cleaner action. The space is now much cleaner and provides easier access for those passing through to the High School Room, as well as for getting things from the shelves or cabinets in the west end of the room.
