30 tables is really not that many. we have schemas with 200 tables in
databases with 6 or 10 different schemas.
we use schemas to separate out data that is rarely used together,
typically each schema is for different application classes.
as far as liberoffice goes, I have no idea, but you should be able to
refer to schemaname.tablename regardless.
