Hi All!

I know that pretty much everyone here highly recommends the Dewy Decimal system of cataloguing but I'm looking to hear from church librarians who have small libraries and organize bookstore-style via categories.   

Our library is very small - we do not have a library budget and don't anticipate receiving one.  It's an existing library that has been neglected.  I'm just wanted to organize it a bit and implement a simple manual self-checkout system (via an old fashioned notebook or binder system).  

Starting from scratch, purchasing supplies for call numbers etc for our books seems like a much larger task than simply organizing by categories.

Thanks in advance for any feedback and testimonies that you would like to share!

    • Don't even know If our new pastor will want a library. The previous librarian was ill for several years then she passed away. The library size is postage stamp.
