Hi-
I recently took a job as a Media Specialist and the library I am taking over
has a paperback section. Just like it sounds, it is all of the paperbacks in
the library regardless of what type of material they are. My understanding
of separating works from the dewey system is to make them easier to browse.
It doesn't make sense to me to browse paperbacks however since it lumps
fiction and nonfiction in together. I was just wondering if there is some
logic behind it that I don't grasp or if anyone considers it a common
practice? Thanks.
