Two tier scenario

One way a 2 day a week delivery could interface with a 5 day a week system is to use a bag within a bag method. i.e. the shipping library would put materials destined for a LAND library first in a bluce LAND bag. Then they would put it in a RED hub bag. The address would have to indicate there was a LAND package inside (similar to how we now address LAND bags with both final destination and hub information. The hubs would be part of LAND and would remove the outer bag and put the LAND bag in the LAND delivery. Materials going from LAND libraries to non-LAND libraries would be packaged "backwards." i.e. Red bag inside blue LAND bag.
