In this paper the amount of frustration in a section of books is derived from a model that includes the effects of variable book circulation and the nondeterministic nature of book use. (Author/DH)

Peer reviewedBookstein, Abraham – Library Quarterly, 1973
Though unshelved books are a problem in every library, little systematic effort has been made to design an optimal solution. Presented here is a mathematical model that attempts to approach such a solution. (2 references) (Author/DH)
