Exploring ULS Selection Lists

Exploring ULS Selection Lists

ULS selection lists are a great resource for finding upcoming items; however, they are not always the most intuitive for navigating. Here are some simple tips to help you navigate the vendor’s website.

These lists can be found in the selection lists tab at the top of the website. The Hotlist suggestion list is released seasonally and the Super Forthcoming Catalogue is released bi-monthly.

When you open each list, there are blue links located just under the list title. These are even more list options.

For example:

The Hotlist selection includes: Hotlist – Fiction, Hotlist – Non-fiction, Second Choice – fiction, and Second Choice non-fiction.

The Super Forthcoming selection includes: a drop-down menu for Ault and Juvenile & YA where you can select items by Format.

Also, in the super forthcoming lists there are genre options like: Christian Fiction, Fantasy, General Fiction (mass market paperbacks), Graphic novels, Historical Romance, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Suspense, Romance, Science Fiction, Thriller, and Western. By clicking on the blue lists you will see a list of items not included in the original list.
