[aisle] Question for middle school librarians

[Carolyn Roys]

Yes. I used to get them from Demco. I’m sure other supply places have them.

So like a "transparent"-ish one? I think that could be a really good idea. Thanks!

The colored dot could work well. Just make sure to get ones that stick well both for wear and against the kids trying to take them off to check out a book.
I used to use a colored spine cover. I chose the lightest one I could find but just enough to see it easily upon return. The ones I mean are the ones that cover the spine label.
Good luck on your quest.

What about putting a colored dot on the spine? They sell dot stickers in a range of colors and sizes. Just a thought.

Hello,

I am in the process of re-doing my mature shelves for my 6-8 library. I wasn't very... diligent whenever it came to making sure the mature books were on the mature shelf because I believe that kids should read whatever they need because what is not relevant to one student may be very relevant to another. With that being said, I was wondering how you physically marked the books that you label "mature" or for 8th grade or whatever wording you use. I have put a note in their destiny records that they need to be shelved on the mature shelf, but I am looking for some way to make knowing the shelf that they go on easier, i.e. at first glance. I know I can just place them to the side whenever I check books in and the mature shelf note pops up, but I sometimes have others check in books and shelve them so I'm looking for an easy way to tell the difference.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
