The  fiction books in the Maxwell Elementary Library were shelved by Accelerated Reading Levels. This means that everyone in the library had trouble finidng the books- even the teachers and the librarian!  With Parnters in Literacy’s help, Maxwell reorganized the fiction books in their library to in grade levels by author.  They also reorganized the books shelved by Dewey Decimal to be by grade level.  They moved every book in the library and it only took two work days.
