We have recently made a few changes to the Young Adult and Reference sections in the library. After running reports, we saw that the “humor” genre wasn’t circulating well. Plus, it was one of the smaller sections. Then, we realized that the Reference section wasn’t circulating since most patrons have access to our online reference databases. Because we want to make the most of the space we have, we decided to make some moves. Check out what we’ve done:
Young Adult
- Display Shelf for students – we now have a space to create student-specific displays when they walk into the library from the school.
- Fantasy – we spread out fantasy so you can find your favorite series.
- Historical and Horror – these genres are smaller, so they can now be found on the same row. Check the end caps for posters; they’ll tell you what genre is on the row.
- Graphic Novel and Manga – these sections are now spread out so you can find the manga series you want with ease!
Reference
- Egyptian collection – this section is more prominent and easier to find on the reference wall.
- Activities, games, and puzzles – our patrons have really enjoyed the games and puzzles we have in the library. We decided to make them easier to access for everyone with their very own section. We also added some great activities and sensory play for patrons of all ages.
