The Municipal Network of Public Libraries is free and open to everyone.

There is a space which suits your needs in the libraries: the children's room.

To find what you need , you have to know that all books and CDs carry a label indicating the place where they should be located. It is the call number, a group of numbers and letters put together.

All materials in the children's room start with an "I".

Storybooks for kids also have colored dot "stickers" to indicate the level of reading:

 

	For early readers.
	Long stories for children beginning to read in their own.
	You can find short novels. In this category there are   adventure and horror books.
	Children's comics.
IE...	Stories in other languages: next to the letter "I" it appears the first letter of the language they were written. For instance, if it is an English story we put an E after the I  IE.

 

In  books dealing with subjects like maths and history, for example, besides containing an I we put a number that identifies each item on the shelf.  It is called the Decimal Classification:
