Unfortunately cataloging in a library is more complicated than shelving in a bookstore, especially if you're a library that's made a big stink over the years about intellectual freedom. The issue becomes how to determine what is "appropriate" and what's not. There's a pretty broad spectrum of sex and violence in comic books, so what would we put with comic books v. what would we put elsewhere? It can be a slippery slope.
Lost Girls, though, is a curve-wrecker. It's not a story with sex, as I've said before, it is flat out 100% pornography. I think cataloging it elsewhere probably would have been completely acceptable. Which of course the catalogers would know if they bothered respecting comic books as any kind of adult medium whatsoever.
