I never read 'Little Brother'.  When I go to the library I usually scan 
the shelves for the author. That series is shelved in YA. I don't know 
where that is in the new library but the old one had a separate kids 
section and I felt out of place. 

I can't remember the author or the book but I did make the trek once. I 
was surprised it had been tagged as YA. I asked a librarian and she said 
they go with whatever the publisher calls it. It wasn't obscene but it 
didn't seem to fit the genre.  

I think kids should be able to read whatever they want to but if you have 
a special category there must be some criteria.
