Like many other academic libraries, Kresge Library uses the Library of Congress Classification to group related books together on its shelves. It is also used for periodicals. The LC classification consists of combinations of letters and numbers.
Further subdivision is by use of Arabic numbers in ordinary numerical sequence.
Class numbers are filed alphabetically, then numerically. Numbers appearing after letters preceded by the decimal point are filed decimally. Statistics HA Technology T Zoology QL Back to Library Brochures .
