The elementary library's year-long project to get into an online catalog was completed as of August 20th. Anything we have in either library can be found on the school's online public access catalog (OPAC). We moved the library around a little bit too over the summer. Easy fiction is no longer "Easy Fiction Island" it is now, L-shaped to enable students easier access to titles.
When you search on the OPAC, the call number will tell you where the book is located. Fiction books located at the high school start with FIC, followed by the first three letters of the author's last name. (example: The Maze Runner by James Dashner = FIC DAS). Non-fiction books located at the high school start with the Dewey call number, followed by the first three letters of the author's last name (example: A Child Called It by Dave Peltzer = 362.7 PEL). At the elementary school, the call number always begins with a letter. J stands for juvenile, E stands for easy. Fiction book located at the elementary school start with J FIC (example: Wonder by R.J. Palacio = J FIC PAL). Easy fiction (children's picture) books start with E, followed by the first three letters of the author's last name (example: The Day the Crayons Quit by Drew Daywalt = E DAY). Non-fiction books start with J, followed by the Dewey call number (example: Who Would Win: Lion vs. Tiger by Jerry Pallotta = J 599.75 PAL).
