The Library of Congress Classification scheme is an alpha-numeric system and is used throughout our collection.
-
The first line of the call number represents the general subject of the book.
KF -- Law of the United States
-
The second line is a number defining the more specific subject area.
8732 -- Court administration and management
-
The third line contains the first letter of the author's last name and the designated author's number (a decimal).
.F7 -- Author number for Ernest C. Friesen
Books are shelved in the order of their call numbers with the exception of the Periodicals Collection which is arranged alphabetically by title.
-
In some instances the Library owns two or more copies of a title, and the separate copies may be housed in different places.
-
Ranges of call numbers are located in various floors throughout the building.
-
Locations are identified in the on-line catalog.
Please consult with a Library staff member if you have difficulty locating the material you wish to see.
