We use Library of Congress Classification System (not Dewey Decimal system)

• The Library of Congress classification system organizes books by broad subject area.

• Each item is assigned a call number, which is like the book's address.

• Each call number begins with a letter or multiple letters, followed by numbers and additional combinations

• Sample Call Number:   RC552.E18 M365 2006

• The beginning letters of a call number represent a broad subject area (ie RC552 is "internal medicine-neuroses")

Most Geman film books start with the letters PN--5th floor of the AU Library.
