[ISLMA-Share] Changing 741 to GN

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

We have had a GN section now for years and our students and teachers seem to like it because they are highlighted in a separate, easy accessible area with their own color coding. Graphic Novel book talks seem to be on the rise, so giving them their own section has really been helpful. We have also separated them into subsections: GN Fiction,  GN Biography , GN nonfiction. 

Hope this helps.
