- Abstract
- The failure of children (or adults) to find items on the shelf, after locating the item in the catalogue, may be due to spatial confusion. Describes a field study designed to test the possibility that spatial skills are related to subjects' speed and directness in retrieving books from the stacks of an unfamiliar library
