Adult vs. Juvenile
- When deciding whether to catalogue a title as Adult or Juvenile/Teen, examine the intellectual content of the title and make decision regardless of location and fund. Juvenile material is suitable for children up to and including 16 years of age.
- The Academic Edge (publisher: Academic Edge) and Key study guides (publisher: Castle Rock Research Corp.) are classed as juvenile if for grades 1-6; titles for grades 7-12 are classed as adult.
- Catalogue all material (print and non-print) according to the intellectual level of the title. Item level call no. should be the same as the title record call no. Queries about the designation of a specific title should be investigated by Cataloguing & Processing staff (i.e. recall item).
Audience level: E
- Audience fixed field = j
- The E classification of book material includes fiction, fiction containing a minor amount of factual information and simple concept books. Picture books for children reading at the pre-school and grades 1 - 4 level (up to and including age 9) are classified as E.
- Oversize exception: E books are an exception to the oversize rules for “Books”, there are no OVERSIZE E picture books, i.e. the Home Location for most E books is JUVPIC not OVERSIZE, see also Home location hierarchy for juvenile books.
Criteria:
- Picture book
- Profusely illustrated
- Illustrations complement text
- Text ranges from wordless to balanced amount of text and illustrations; wordless books are classed as E rather than J.
- Typically 48 pages or fewer
- Generally larger or smaller in size than standard book format
- Includes very simple non-fiction books with limited text (topics may include: colours, counting, shapes, simple arithmetic, size, weight, etc.). Factual content is insufficient for a child to write a report. See also Concept Books.
- Formerly included some fairytales, nursery rhymes and poetry, classified using Dewey; now classed in J. See E Fairytales.
- Beginning readers series (fiction) are classified as E; includes simple chapter books for children 9 years and younger
- Texts of single songs are usually classified as E; may include the music on a separate page (usually at the end). See also Subject Headings, Juvenile Fiction.
- Books presenting material in a fictional/story format with minor factual content are classified as fiction (either E or J)
Exceptions:
- Children's picture puzzle books are generally classified in J 793.73; e.g. The I spy series.
- Very simple puzzle books, suitable for preschoolers, may be classed in E.
- Religious material referring to a specific denomination or religion is classified in J. Material with indirect religious content or references to “God” may be classified as E.
- Simple fiction books for children up to and including 9 years of age dealing with social issues, diseases or coping skills are classified in J non-fiction if designed as a teaching tool and includes one or more pages of background or teaching information for parents or teachers; e.g. Gay/lesbian relationships, Alzheimer's disease, coping with death. Simple fiction books about such topics without additional factual information may be classified as E.
Audience level: J
- Audience fixed field = j
- These works are intended for grades 4-7 (ages 9-13).
- Precede call number with: J.
Criteria:
- Illustrations are incidental to text, but in some cases, based on subject and appeal, a profusely illustrated book may be classified as J
- Text ranges from beginning chapter books with some illustrations to those with all text
- Wide range in reading level
- Situations and subjects of interest and appeal to intended audience
- In fiction, age of protagonist can be older than intended audience
- Minor religious content is acceptable in J fiction
- Titles featuring a recurring character may be catalogued in both E and J, according to the reading level. However, do not catalogue these titles in both J and Teen (assign most appropriate designation for series).
Audience level: Teen
- Audience fixed field = d
- Books intended for grades 8-10 (ages 13-16).
- Includes both fiction and non-fiction.
- Precede call number with: TEEN.
Criteria:
- Wide range of reading levels which can include books of high interest and low vocabulary.
- Subject matter may be more mature than in J, this may include current controversial themes as well as concerns of enduring interest to adolescents, i.e. self-identity, alienation, sexual orientation, general conflict
- Generally the protagonist in teen fiction is a young adult.

- Do not make 586 or 730 for Batailles des bouquins nominees or winners.

099 \\$aEasy readers B$vPBK
Hardcover copies of non-fiction easy readers may be found in the Juvenile non-fiction collection.

Folklore and Fairytales
- The style and format, not just the story, of a book determines whether the title is to be considered a fairy tale.
- For tales by Grimm, Perrault, Aesop, and Andersen, if the main entry is not the original author, double cutter (giving original author first).
- In cases where the original story is an anonymous classic, double cutter for the uniform title of the story if different from the main entry and trace the uniform title in a 730, if different from the 245 $ a or 246 $ a.
- Consult the latest edition of DDC for the appropriate classification number.
- May be classed as E, J, Teen or adult.
Juvenile Fiction vs. Non-Fiction
- Juvenile non-fiction can be catalogued within the Teen and J audience levels.
- The maximum length of Dewey numbers is 6 digits for juvenile non-fiction print and non-print.
- Class novels written in verse as fiction.

Special Occasion Books

Criteria:
- Juvenile books, both fiction and nonfiction, having a central theme of Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Easter, Thanksgiving or Halloween receive the appropriate supplementary spine label.
- For fiction, the story should feature the occasion, in both text and pictures.
- The overall impression/presentation of the book should be that the occasion is the focus.
- For nonfiction, the majority of the content should be directly related to the occasion and the book may be classified anywhere in DDC.
- Do not affix the special occasion label when the occasion is a minor element, or, for nonfiction, less than 50% of the content. E.g. If 25% of the book deals with Christmas and 75% deals with winter, do not assign a special occasion.
500 note:
- To ensure consistent treatment of all copies, include a 500 note in the title record, e.g.
A (or An) {occasion} book
A Halloween book.
An Easter book.
A Valentine’s Day book.
- Ensure that the record contains a subject heading for the occasion.
Occasion vs. Concept:
- Prefer the designation Concept when the special occasion is peripheral to the primary intent.
- For example, a counting book featuring pumpkins as the item counted is considered a Concept Book.
Storytime Collection
- All titles for the STORYTIME collection are specifically selected for this collection.
- Types of material included will consist of E books, adult resource material and juvenile sound recordings.

- Do use as the first subject heading for these large format E books in the STORYTIME collection: 650 \0$aBig books before other headings as appropriate. The scope note for this heading: "Here are entered poster-size children's books designed to be read aloud in a group setting, as well as works about such books."
YRCA
- There are three divisions:
- Junior (Grades 4-6)
- Intermediate (Grades 7-9)
- Senior (Grades 10-12)
- Note: Some adult titles may be nominated. Do not recatalogue to J, but add label for YRCA + year and use YRCA/YRCA2 in the home location field. The same practice applies to Large Print and French language versions of YRCA nominee titles.
- Make 500 in the title records of Young Readers' Choice Award nominees, e.g.
500 |a YRCA [date], [Division] nominee.

500 |a 100 great books to read together, 2010.

500 | Genre Notes (i.e. Mystery, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Sports & Animals)
- Genres are assigned to J and TEEN fiction only, in English-language, NOT to books classed as E.
- Apply appropriate genre label (see Genre Definitions)
- Fiction books in the same series (with a 490 and 830 in the title record) should be given the same genre label as service points are now expecting them to be shelved together.
- Fiction titles with different authors but the same recurring characters (and no 490 and 830 in the title record) need not be given the same genre label, e.g. Muppets (Fictitious characters).
