Book Searching Tutorials
Call Numbers
Call numbers are addresses which help us locate materials in the library. The call number assigned to an item indicates its subject matter, author and title.
In this section you will learn about the call number system, how to find a book by call number and how books are shelved.
See Tutorial created by Hunter College Libraries.
For help understanding what sort of books you'll find in a given call range, please see this outline of the Library of Congress Classification Scheme.
