Dewey Decimal Fight
11/7/07 12:02Today I have been restickering some of the books that the distributor got wrong.
"Organizing Your Life" marked as 133.3 (Tarot, feng shui, runes, numerology, etc.)
"Teach Yourself Spanish" marked as 868.2 (Near the Spanish literature, at least, but quite distant from the Spanish language section)
"Blade of the Immortal," complete with topless woman on the cover, marked as Juvenile (i.e. under-12) graphic novel. (And we let it get out on the shelves like that! I caught it before it got checked out, but still...)
I find their lack of proofreading disturbing. Especially since the average price to process a book is approximately equal to the price of the book itself.
