Good morning,
Our middle school contains grades 6-8. Many of the books in our library
are recommended (SLJ) for grades 7 & up, or 8 & up.

I would like to hear from middle school librarians as to how they handle
the slightly mature content of many of their books.
  • Do you not purchase anything that recommended for grades higher than
    6th?
  • Do you use YA stickers?
  • Do you mark the book in some other way to indicate slightly mature
    content?
  • Other ideas...

Thank you,
Suzanne
