- Abstract
- In recent years, many school librarians have been scrambling to build and expand their graphic novel collections to meet the large and growing demand for these materials. For the purposes of this study, the term graphic novels refers to volumes in which the content is provided through sequential art, including fiction, nonfiction, and biographical material. As the library field has not yet arrived at a set of best practices or guidelines for institutions working to classify and catalog graphic novels, this study seeks to record the ways in which school librarians are handling these materials as well as issues and questions at the forefront of their minds. A survey of school librarians in the United States revealed that almost all of them collect fiction and nonfiction graphic novels, while 67% collect manga. Most respondents indicated that they are partly or solely responsible for the cataloging and classification decisions made in their media centers. For classification purposes, most have elected to create separate graphic novel collections to house their fictional graphic novels. Some include nonfiction graphic novels in this section, while others create a nonfiction graphic novel collection nearby or shelve nonfiction graphic novels with other items that deal with similar subject matter. Many school librarians express uncertainty about how best to catalog and classify longer series, adapted classics, superhero stories, and the increasing number and variety of inventive titles that defy categorization. They also struggle with inconsistent vendor records and past practices and suffer from a lack of full confidence in their knowledge of how to best classify and catalog graphic novels so that they are both searchable in the library catalog and easily accessible on the shelves.

- Abstract
- Fiction reading is often neglected by young people. One reason could be that traditional retrieval aids give little help in the retrieval of fiction. A graphic interface may solve this problem if it is designed according to specific criteria such as ease of use, use of icons, availability of a help function and provision of access points particularly suited to fiction. To formulate suitable criteria, the specific characteristics of young people, such as age, gender, computer literacy, reading ability, typing and spelling ability and vocabulary, will have to be considered

- Abstract
- Attempts to see whether any research successfully supports principles of fiction classification that were laid out by early classification theorists. The research shows that there is some evidence to suggest that fiction classification makes it easier for users to find the type of novel desired. At its best, fiction classification should and can expose readers to lesser-known authors within a particular genre, therefore performing a valuable and cost-effective methods of readers' guidance. Finally, evidence suggests that there is still some confusion over which major practical method to use when classifying fiction: simply marking the spines of classified works (but leaving them interfiled with the regular collection) or physically separating classified fiction from the general fiction collection

- Abstract
- The arts, humanities, and social sciences commonly borrow concepts and methods from the sciences, but interdisciplinary borrowing seldom occurs in the opposite direction. Research on narrative discourse is relevant to problems of documentary storage and retrieval, for the arts and humanities in particular, but also for other broad areas of knowledge. This paper views the potential application of narrative discourse analysis to information storage and retrieval problems from 2 perspectives: 1) analysis and comparison of narrative documents in all disciplines may be simplified if fundamental categories that occur in narrative documents can be isolated; and 2) the possibility of subdividing the world of knowledge initially into narrative and non-narrative documents is explored with particular attention to Werlich's work on text types

Analyzes the data and highlights aspects of the broader context of the system which may help in development of mechanisms for electronic access

- Abstract
- The Nippon Decimal Classification (NDC) system, extensively used in Japanese libraries, was devised in 1929. It is difficult to use NDC to classify world literature, such as fiction in English by non American, non British writers. This is not necessarily straightforward in other classification schemes but a survey of 40 Japanese university libraries, of which 24 responded, showed remarkable inconsistencies in the treatment of 22 world literature authors. NDC clearly needs updating to deal with this problem
