E vs. J nonfiction books
Hello library land! I'm wondering if anyone has the same issue. We have an E section which is for easy picture books and a Juvenile section for the older kids/strong readers. My quandary is when I have a book that is in between, primarily non-fiction books. We have some easy reading biographies (like the Little Golden Books Biography series) that are too easy/short/basic for the J non-fiction, but putting them in with the E picture books (which are 99% fiction) doesn't seem right. I was considering creating a separate shelf in the E section for these non-fiction books. Am I overthinking this? For reference, our E books are in separate "bins" (like at a record store) and are sorted by the first letter of the author's last name, not alphabetically on a shelf. The book that got me thinking was Comet Chaser by Pamela Turner (9781452145433). Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated! -Cindy *Cindy Persic* *Cataloger* *"Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."*
