NOTE: Scores classed under ML or MT may be considered "oversize" if smaller than 41 cm, as these shelves are currently shorter. If an ML or MT volume is over 31 cm, check to see if it will fit on the shelf (either face-up or spine-down). If not, put it in as an oversize score.

The last set of MT shelves provide slightly more space; these can hold volumes up to 35 cm (as opposed to the 31 cm for ML volumes).
