Does anyone know what the standards are for titles that begin with 
numbers? Our DVDs are shelved by title, but what do I do with 12 Angry 
Men or 3:10 to Yuma? Are they under 1 or One, 3 or Three?

I looked online, and if I read it right ALA is marginally endorsing the 
numeral method: http://www.ala.org/tools/libfactsheets/alalibraryfactsheet27

Tacoma WA also does numerals, but Multnomah (Portland OR) does it by word.

If it's by word, I'll just spell it out on the spine labels...

Thanks for your help!

Sincerely,
Sue
