Hi all. I've been asked to make two (or more) separate finding aids for a single collection which is split into two (or more) locations (and by location, I mean different floors in the same building.)

In other word, Stanton family papers might have two finding aids. One for the first half which is on level A, and one for the second half which is on level B... and so forth.

1) Is this common? 
and
2) What would be the pros and cons of doing this?
and
3) Any additional thoughts?

Let me know if I'm not being clear. :)

Thanks,
Justin
