Are the archives back up?  We just had a big discussion on this a couple
weeks ago.

"It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly
one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit
facts." Sherlock Holmes - A Scandal in Bohemia.

Okay, so maybe I'm way off base, but I think we're talking about two
different types of labeling here. I mean, I don't think that labeling
intended to assist patrons in finding materials they are looking for
is
the same as labeling intended to alert patrons that they may find
something objectionable. I'm fairly certain that ALA's anti-labeling
stance applies only to the second kind. I just don't see how labeling
for
Accelerated Reader or library ownership or genre categorization could
be
opposed by ALA. Even a spine label is a type of labeling....
What do others think?

At any rate, I will continue to label for AR, genre, and call number!
:)
