Pardon our dust ...

Last spring the curriculum textbooks, big books, book kits, and award titles (Caldecott & Newbery) on the second floor were shifted in preparation for expansion of the juvenile collection. The collection shift project began last week and is planned through the fall 2014 and spring 2015 term. Children's books will remain on the second floor; the collection footprint will be expanded into the empty stacks directly behind big books, book kits, and award books.

During this project, juvenile books will be evaluated and a variety of dated, damaged, and titles that are no longer relevant will be withdrawn. Doing so, especially within the non-fiction portion of the collection, will help focus resources and provide updated titles for classroom use.  Some withdrawn titles will be moved to the special books collection (as warranted), most will be made available to students on the free book carts located on the library main floor.

New books, fiction and non-fiction, continue to be added to the juvenile collection; new items are placed on the second floor new book shelves when shelf ready and corresponding blog posts published here. If you need help locating a book, be sure to stop in the IRC for assistance.

Thanks for your patience during this project.  And please, pardon our dust (we will keep the noise down).

What's New? Juvenile Collection

We've been working to increase the overall footprint of the juvenile collection on the library second floor, outside of the Instructional Resource Center. This video highlights some of the changes that have taken place including moving and expanding the Caldecott and Newbery award book area, creating a new oversized section for juvenile (no more books sticking out!), incorporating the big book and book kit collections into the juvenile area, changing out existing shelving for wider shelves (handling wider picture book titles), and adjusting placement of the collection for growth and use.

All of the signage has been updated and catalog location codes reflect placement of all titles. Additional photographs of the juvenile collection are available on the IRC Pinterest page.

Library 2nd Floor: Juvenile Collection

It's that time again! For the remainder of the summer we will be moving juvenile books within the stacks on the second floor. Working from the end of the collection to the beginning, an additional four sections will be allotted to juvenile books. This means more room on the shelf, an easier time locating and returning books to the stacks, and opportunity to grow the collection. During this time there will be large gaps in the stacks and the above sign placed in the empty sections. At any time, just move several sections to your right and the remainder of the collection will be at your fingertips.

As always, please feel free to ask for help locating titles in the juvenile collection. Thanks for your patience!
