[aisle] Spanish Fiction

[Mrs. Kuzminski]

Good Morning!  I have books in multiple languages... Spanish, Arabic,
Polish, Korean, etc. in their own foreign language section for multiple
reasons. First, it helps our ELL teachers and students find them easily.
Some of them are already struggling to make appropriate reading choices in
English, so this at least makes finding books in their comfortable first
language easy for them.   And second, I don't want them getting lost or
damaged by students who don't speak a second language.  I understand that
kids are curious, but I don't need the general population causing
unnecessary wear and tear just because they think it's funny to check out*
Diary of a Wimpy Kid *in Korean.

I have them catalogued as Foreign Language so that the call number and
spine label look like this:
*FOR*
*KOREAN*
*KINNEY*

*or... *

*FOR*
*ARABIC*
*COLLINS*

Hope this helps!
Amanda
