It's important to organize your classroom library in a way that allows students to easily find "just right" books that they are interested in reading. To stay organized, all baskets in my classroom library have a unique label that tells a reader what type of books they can find inside. The basket labels vary based on the section of the library in which the basket is located.
• Nonfiction basket labels reveal the topic students will find inside.
• Fiction picture book and chapter book labels reveal the basket's genre.
• Chapter book series baskets reveal the name of the different series a reader will find inside.
Download my pre-made labels and a label template you can use to create your own.

Beth, downloaded Printshop but was unable to find/open/ use 3 templates you described that are for creating labels for more baskets in my classroom library.
Can you, please, send help as to how I should be able to access the templates.
Thanks for your continued support!

Worked and is beautifully done! Thank you so much! I did have to shrink the labels in order to have them fit...simple one button fix when choices are made while printing! Kudos!

This link does not work. All it does is produce “Pop-up adds “ in an effort to get us to spend more $$$.
NOTHING is FREE!!!!

Great labels! I got to them using docstoc.com, like the below comment said.

To find labels: Go to docstoc.com and search for "Beth Newingham", they will come up and you can download. :)

The links don't work as everyone else has stated. Scholastic, why are you sending an email with this article if the links no longer work?
