Subject: [ISLMA-Share] Genre-fying Question
Hi --
I am seeking opinions of the many wise librarians on this list. I am genre-fying my fiction section and have a section for Mystery/Horror books, which will include traditional mysteries, ghosts, horror, etc. I have a number of books in my folktale area that would qualify for this section. So I am thinking of moving them. However, at the same time, I do like having them in the folktale section because they are, indeed, folktales and/or urban legends. What to do, what to do?
"The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function." - F. Scott Fitzgerald
I am interested in hearing your opinions on this!
Thanks and happy summer (soon, one more week with the kiddos)!
Joanne
