GUIDE to the

LIBRARY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM

Use this guide to browse the shelves for material, but remember two things: (1) you won't see
what is available at other campuses or checked out and (2) this guide is very general, so many
items on a topic may be shelved in other places. Using the catalog can overcome these
problems.
