Project Overview
Designation of Proposed Standard:
ANSI/NISO Z39.73
Year:
1994 (R2012)
Title of Standard:
Single-Tier Steel Bracket Library Shelving
NISO Approval Date:
Wed, Jan 11 2012
ANSI Approval Date:
Wed, Feb 22 2012
Abstract:
This standard may save you money on purchases of steel, single-tier, freestanding shelving while ensuring that the shelving meets minimum performance requirements that can be verified by an independent testing laboratory. Since this is a performance standard rather than an engineering specification, Z39.73 allows for advances in materials, technology and engineering. It is based on information collected by the American Library Association from a quarter century of laboratory testing on the performance of single-tier steel library shelving. Both manufacturers and users of steel library shelving participated in its development.
