Shelf Locations
Scenario: "I found a great title from the Augsburg subject list. Now where do I find the book on the shelf?"
After you have limited your search results to the Augsburg College collection, click on any title to see that book's location, call number, and status. When you are in the library, it is important to write down or print that information so you can find the book on the shelf.
Point your mouse cursor over the Location, Call Number and Status fields in the image below for more information.
Library of Congress Classification System
Academic libraries usually use the Library of Congress Classification System to organize the books on the shelves according to their subject. Through this organization system, sometimes you can even find a better book on the shelves than the one you found in your original search!
