[Histonet] Re: High density slide storage

[Linda Jenkins]

Leslie,
         Southern Business Systems, Inc. is one of the companies that does 
automated materials management.  It is really a neat system.  Slides are 
barcoded before filing and can be retrieved automatically.  Their website 
is http://www.sbssolutions.com/03_products/auto.shtml  It shows a picture 
of pathology slides and lab samples.  I have one of their old brochures and 
it says they put five years of histology slides (very large hospital) into 
16 square feet of floor space.
         Hope this was what you were thinking about,
         Linda
