What is a balanced collection? Content and Container


After quizzing the librarian at my school I discovered that the library categorise its resources into Fiction, Non-Fiction (Dewey System), reference, teacher resources and audio visual. It’s overwhelming to a newcomer like me, to read about not only the formats resources come in but terms such as topology and genres with categories of genres. Categorisation by subject and material sub divided into language then the library resourcing procedure reflecting its organisational structure. Somewhat confusing.
