Thank you all for your feedback on your graphic novel collections. It has definitely given me some good ideas of how I will suggest our library handle them.

 

Thanks!!

Hi,

 

If any of you have graphic novel collections, I would love to know how you handle them. For example, what is their availability  - are they on reserve or room use only, etc.?

Also, how are they stored, bound or kept in plastic sleeves, etc? And where are they located?

 

I would appreciate your input.

 

Thank you,

Tara
