There are over 24,000 books in the Marion Hutchins Library! How will you ever find that ONE book!?

Picture books are also organized by author's last name.

Series

Fiction books are organized alphabetically by author's last name.

Series are organized like fiction books, by author's last name.

Call Numbers!

Everyone Readers

Call numbers are located on the spines of each and every book in the library.

Everyone readers are also organized by author's last name.

But what if two authors have the same two last names? Or an author has written more than one book?

Think of them as each book's unique "address" in the library.

Graphic Novels

Graphic novels may be organized like fiction books, picture books, or non-fiction. This makes sense, because a graphic novel may be fiction, biographical, or non-fiction.
