Clip to ScrapBook   
I have my books in baskets according to some of the following categories in my second grade:

Chapter Books
Mysteries
Seasons and Holidays
Animal Books (Fiction)
Animal Books (Non-Fiction)
Sports
Places
and Cultures
Historical
Misc. Fiction
Misc. Non-Fiction
Poetry
and Favorites. This is where I put my books that I love to read aloud. This is probably the most popular of all my baskets! My kids love rereading books that I read aloud!

PS- A tip that I learned on this site last year that has really helped with management...

I put each child's name on a clothespin Put

all their clothespins in a basket. When my kids picked a book, they left their pin on the basket. When they go to return their book, if they've forgotten what basket the book was in, they just look for the pin! It really works!

Hope this helps!=)
