[ISLMA-Share] shelf markers and sinage

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I was always impressed with the system used at my child's Montessori school. They had a bucket of paint sticks. (Those sticks they give you at the hardware store when you buy a can of paint.) If the kid takes a book off the shelf, they slide a paint stick into its place, if they decide this is not the book for them, they can easily find where it came from.
