[CALIBK12] determining reference

So, weeding is done now (well, at least preliminary weeding, I'm sure I will
have to do more as I put the new books out, because there's a lot of them).
Unfortunately, as you LAUSD folks know, Accent has been down all week, so we
are up to our knees in not quite discarded books all over the floor. Once I
can electronically discard the books, I can physically discard them (ironic,
or what?), and then I'll be putting out the new books that are waiting in
the back room.

In any case, as I begin processing the books, I was wondering what criteria
folks use for determining whether something is reference or not. Is it size?
Price? Type of resource? I know this seems like a basic question, but I need
some solid answers to help things go smoothly (I'm in an HS library, by the
way, I keep forgetting to mention that).

Thanks again!
