I chose a photo of a disorganized-looking bookshelf because it is a photo that I could use in my curriculum. As a Library Media Specialist, one of my duties is to help children understand the importance of organization of books in a library. This photo could be a great way to get kids started on a discussion about how to organize books and the challenges of having books that are not organized.

As a fellow librarian, this would drive me crazy! This is a wonderful image. It would make a good puzzle though. There was an interesting conversation on the MAME listserv a couple of years ago, where there were those who were thinking of shelving books in a very imaginative way. They were not following my beloved Dewey Decimal system. It was quite strange.
