Get to Know Our New System (The Big Shift 2.2)


Last time that this was updated, we let you know about our efforts to genrefy the fiction section of our collection. We had successfully moved all the books to their new locations. Now, we are proud to announce that we have finished phase two of this enormous plan - updating the books in our computer system so that you can find them on the shelves.


Without further ado, here is what to look for when searching the Hawks Library catalog:


Action-Adventure: FIC-ADV

Classics: FIC-CLA

Fantasy: FIC-FAN

Historical: FIC-HIS

Horror & Supernatural: FIC-HOR

Mystery & Suspense: FIC-MYS

Realistic Fiction (Life & Relationships): FIC-REL

Realistic Fiction (Social Issues): FIC-RES

Romance: FIC-ROM

Science Fiction: FIC-SF

Sports: FIC-SPO


If you see those codes, the book will be in the specified section. Books are still alphabetized by author's last name. You will also notice that each book has a colorful dot at the top which can help you know its genre. These correspond to dots on the shelf toppers (see the above picture).


We're hoping this will help you find what you're looking for when you browse the collection and look forward to seeing you in here soon!
