I dunno, labelling novels as novels was useful when I was trying to find the history texts among the books my library put out for Black History month.
Other household members want the non-fiction books labelled instead. They say that slapping
A History on something like
Emperor of Rome by Mary Beard would be more useful then slapping
A Novel all over the place.
