AB - With a purpose of investigating the current status of resource organization for infants and young children’s resources, this study examined 8 municipal libraries in J city and suggested recommendations for improvements. To do that, interviews were conducted with 8 children’s librarians and 25 users, who were parents visiting the libraries. All libraries examined were using KDC to classify young children’s resources, but books were shelved by the alphabetic order of publishers’ names. This arrangement strategy was regarded very convenient in re-shelving materials from the perspective of librarians, but users had difficulties in finding books because of the separation of the classification system and the arrangement system. Also, the online public cataloging system did not provide accurate and sufficient information to locate a book. Based on the results, this study suggested two ways for improvements: (1) classifying and arranging books by KDC, (2) developing a new classification system customized to infants and young children.
