Although, a lot of the JYA (Middle School marketed,) fantasy has pretty good stuff at my local library, but that's because it doesn't have romance subplots or, if it does, it's incidental. I agree completely with the adult and kiddie sections having the best stuff: picture me, ten years old (or you could just picture Hermione Granger - the stack of books was about the right size,) explaining to the librarian why I had half my stack from the adult section and half from the kids section.

That happened a lot, now that I think of it. But So You Want To Be A Wizard was in JYA at my library, probably because the first few books were written long enough ago that they probably were marketed for kids, on the assumptions that older teens would read adult novels.
