Things to remember: ● When you in the middle of the madness it's for the students. You are making the library more accessible. ● It's takes time! I worked on it starting in May and then throughout the summer. ● Have a plan! NonFiction I started with nonfiction because I knew it was going to take me the most amount of time. I made a list of the sections (neighborhoods) that I knew I wanted such as military, animals, sports, etc. I started making stacks as I went through each book on the shelves. I did major weeding at the same time. It was a huge mess with stacks everywhere. Once I had made stacks I went through and combined stacks as necessary. I put poetry books about space with space. My thinking behind this, the student who is reading about space my never go to the poetry section but is more likely to get the poetry book off the space shelf. I then decided on the names of each section. See that list . I then starting moving books on shelves (after I dusted all of the shelves). I tried to put the popular section in prime locations and not too close together. I did have to shift some sections around to make sure they fit. Start with your largest sections first such as animals. Once I was satisfied with my shelves I started labeling. The next step takes forever! I then labeled each shelf with the words and stickers. I then went in Destiny to add the section (neighborhood) to the call number. ● Catalog Tab ● Update Copies ● Batch Update ● Change Call Number Prefix to (enter the section. example: Space) ● Update all copies in barcode list ● Update At the end of each shelf I put a sign with the sections on that aisle.
