New Book Status Changes

Most of our new books eventually become part of the regular collection, and when they do it's important to get the new location code correct. Just because the call number is "FIC MEL" doesn't mean it necessarily belongs in fiction -- check to see if its a mystery, large print, SP, etc. Likewise most Deweys do belong in non-fiction, but some may be travel books. Lots of books end up "missing" simply because the catalog indicates the wrong location. A list of location codes and their plain-english translations can be found here: file://gateway/staff-2/ahelck/Public/map%20of%20the%20library/locations.doc
