I replied to Mary directly and then I thought maybe others would like to
know that Jan Brett has Library Signs at
http://www.janbrett.com/library_signs/library_signs_main.htm I wanted
different wording on my signs and also different colors for different
sections of the library. We're K-6 and the color coding helps the little
guys. To do this I just right clicked over the picture that I wanted and
saved it to my hard drive. Then I open the pictures from Microsoft Publisher
(any word processing or photo editor would work.) and put my text over the
one on the page. This also allows you to change the font and size of the
text which was great. And Jan Brett's pictures look so cute. I put them into
clear acrylic frames and they look great. Printing them on photo paper or
laminating them would also give you the professional shiny look of purchased
isgns.

Subject: Target: Homemade Dewey signs for shelving
I would like to make some paper signs and laminate them to go on the ends of
the shelving showing something like
500's
510 math
520 astronomy
530 physics
etcetera for the whole of each hundred.
I have not seen anything exactly like this in catalogs. I did find this
useful thing online but it is at the college level and would have to be
translated to be intelligible to elementary students.

Has anyone done anything like it already for elementary who can send it to
me, so I do not have to translate the whole thing into elementary?Yes, I
will post a hit if I get what I requested.
