New Fast Facts Survey: Adult Hardcover and Paperback Fiction

I have posted a new Fast Facts survey that I'm inviting the people on this list to answer:

Adult Hardcover and Paperback Fiction

"We are evaluating our adult hardcover and paperback fiction collections. We would like to know how other libraries arrange and label their collections, and what genres are used. Thanks for your help!"

Do not reply to this email or post your answers to this mailing list.

Please respond to my questions by visiting the list of Fast Facts surveys on the RAILS website, at http://www.railslibraries.info/fast-facts/list (Login required.)

Thank you.
