Call Numbers

Each book is given a Library of Congress call number.

Call numbers are arranged alphabetically, and then by whole number (everything before the first period in the call number).

A call number is like a book's address, and books on related topics are located next to each other on our shelves. Click here to find out what call numbers are assigned for particular subjects:
