Storage of CD's

From: Merle Kimball <makimb>

My supervisor wants to have compact discs stored in our regular
library stack areas right along with the books. Does anyone do this?
If so, what type of container do you use?

A search of CoOL did not reveal any information on shelving compact
discs with books. We have had pockets made in back of books to hold
cassettes and other materials and put in the stacks. If there is no
text accompanying the CD, then making a container seems problematic
to me. Does anyone have any suggestions?
