[ISLMA-Share] Changing 741 to GN

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Mine are GN and in their own location.  Kids know exactly where to go to
find them.  It also keeps the graphic "novel" separate from the few "comic"
books I have like Garfield.  (Not to mention the books about drawing
cartoons, etc.)  I am all for making things easy to find--though I'm still
not on the bandwagon for "genrefying" my library!
