thats if you are looking for just one specific author.
i normally go through the shelves looking for books. but
with their unique arrangement i have to do it many times.
a-z for thrillers
a-z for romance
a-z for award winners.....
in community libraries i only go through a-z once.
I am not in particular for any specific author.
I love to read non fiction family stories. Authors must be a
guy. That is a must.
