[LM_NET] TAR: Shelving Manga

[Vicki Nelson <nelsonvl@ECTOR-COUNTY.K12.TX.US>]

Hi everyone; hope your year is off to a good start.  For those of you that have 
Manga books, how/where have you decided to shelve them?  I've only bought a couple 
so far, but the response is amazing, and when my budget comes in, I'll be adding 
more.  Kids who have never come in to the library on their own have come by to say 
they've heard we've got Manga, so it's definitely something I want to encourage.

It's kind of overwhelming making selections because there are so many, but the 
students have been good to reccomend titles and series that they think will be 
appropriate.  Then I go through  reviews and make choices.

But they are coming from Follett, etc. marked 741, and I want them in Fiction.  My 
first thought is just to mark them fiction and shelve under the author rather than 
making a Manga section.  Any advice on your experience would be appreciated.
