Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Out of curiosity, has anyone thought about where they will place the new Harry Potter book in their collections? It seems like it may be *intended* to be a part of the series but was written in a different format (it's a play) and possibly for a different audience (some vendors list it as juvenile and some as adult). So where will the book ultimately live in your library? * Fiction or Nonfiction? * Teen or Adult? * Forget it! We're putting it with the rest of the series! Each library will have a different take on this, I was just wondering what the general feeling was. Thanks for your thoughts!

I plan to put it in J Fiction - Baker & Taylor lists it as fiction and it looks like the book version is a "Special Edition" format of the play. *Cathy Lancaster* *Coordinator of Youth Services* *Traverse Area District Library* (231) 932-8560 610 Woodmere Ave. Traverse City, MI 49686 On Mon, Apr 11, 2016 at 3:43 PM, Josh Schu <Josh.Schu@farmlib.org> wrote:
