Monahans-Wickett-Pyote ISD

School libraries organize books by genre, or "genrefy" them, to make it easier for students to find books they like and to help them become better readers: 

• Accessibility: Students can more easily locate books by browsing, and it's easier for students with language barriers. 
• Student empowerment: Students can participate in connected reading and feel more empowered to find materials on their own. 
• Increased circulation: Students may check out books they wouldn't have otherwise. 
• Literacy tool: Genres can help struggling readers feel more confident and anticipate plots. 
• Identify reading preferences: Students can identify their own reading preferences and find "read-alikes". 
• Transition between series: Students can transition from junior fiction series to genre fiction. 
• Librarian knowledge: Librarians can better understand their collection and what their students want to read. 
• Collection strengths: Librarians can identify areas of high demand and areas to promote.
