[CASL-L] Biographies section question

Hi all - I have also found that my biographies got checked out much more
frequently when I organized them by type - sports, science/tech, historical
figures, and entertainers/artists. I do have a miscellaneous category for
people that don't quite fit, but it's been so much easier for my younger
kids to browse and find people. I'm not sure if that would help at the
upper grades or not, but it has definitely made a difference here. I just
put a tiny colored dot on the spine.
