I came back from AASL 2021 inspired by Rachel Rich's presentation! Then, genrefied my Upper School Fiction section. Here's a link to Rachel's presentation: How Genrefying the Library Made My Life Easy. I've cc'd her and am hoping she's okay with me sharing it!
Before, during, and after photos from the process at my school:
Happy genrefying!
