[Publib] cataloguueing music cds

[King, Jamie]

Hi Megan,

How do you determine what goes in which of these sections?  For instance, if I wanted to go straight to the shelves and see if Beethoven's 9th was in, where would I go?  Of course, I'd hope people would check the catalog, but I think most, including myself, would attempt browsing first, and many never use the catalog or ask for help.  I wonder if such divisions hinder access at some point.
