Color Coding AR Books

[GLADIS HOCKER <ghock@swbell.net>]

I am the Librarian at a K-12 school.  Our collection includes several AR
titles. When the AR program began, the former librarian began using
round colored dots for each reading level.  This method seems to work
very well for my school.  However, the real concern is not color coding
but how you will house the books. Will you shelve them on a place put
aside for them or will add them to the general colection. It is easier
for students to pick out a AR book if they are shelved in one area. You
need to be aware though, that if you shelve them in their own area that
your students may not check out as many of the other books in your
collection.
