Due date slip (if applicable): Most automated libraries do not use them, but if they are used they should be attached in a consistent place.The pocket and card should be clearly labelled and attached in a consistent place. Pocket and card: A small number of libraries use pockets and cards if they aren’t automated or have small satellite collections.Barcode numbers should also be recorded on each part of a multimedia kit to connect the parts back to the kit if they become lost. TALIS Network schools should purchase barcodes from designated suppliers. This makes it easier to find barcodes at checkout, checkin and during inventories. Item barcode label: Barcode labels should be attached in the same place on each item.If possible, all items within a kit or multimedia resource should be labelled or stamped. School label or stamp: Resources should be labelled or stamped in several places.Examples could include: New items, Covering, Add to catalogue and Spine Labels. Labelled shelves in the workroom can be used for each stage of processing and will enable you to develop a good workflow. Guidelines should be documented for the benefit of current library staff and new members of staff. Processing should be consistent for each format eg book, reading set, DVD, magazine. This identifies them as library property, allows them to be checked out and prolongs their life. This has been a huge help for my students when finding informational books! When I used to have them arranged in baskets, I had a lot of subjects with only a few books, so they didn’t really have enough books for their own basket, but then other subjects were overflowing with books, but not enough books for another basket.All library resources should be processed before they are borrowed. I created the Classroom Library Informational Book Spine Labels based on the Dewey Decimal system, but instead of numbers, the labels have colors and icons! There is an informational reference sheet in a picture frame on top of the informational book shelf, so students can use that to help them find the types of informational books they are looking for!
This allows students to not only see the titles of all the books as they are browsing, but also easily find their favorite authors by searching for the letter and the color! It also makes it super efficient for them to put books away when they are finished reading them because they can see right where the book belongs by searching for the color and letter on the label! Informational Book Spine Labels:
The labels all have letters and are color-coordinated. Our fiction books are organized in alphabetical order by author’s last name using my Classroom Library Rainbow Book Spine Labels! Each book has a label on the bottom of the spine.
We have 3 different sections in our classroom library: fiction, informational, and graphic novels! Fiction Book Spine Labels:

I really want my students to have an authentic experience with our classroom library and learn not only how to find books in our classroom, but also how to find books when they are at bookstores and public libraries! That was the whole reason behind creating my book spine labels for classroom library organization! All books are facing with their spines out so books don’t get lost in the back of book baskets and students can see the titles of every book at any given time as they are browsing for books!
