  16. Finding Materials (continued) • Library books at Ranger College are classified and shelved by Library of Congress (LC) call numbers.

  17. Understanding LC Call Numbers Each item in the library (books, journals, movies, etc.) has a unique call number.  The call number label is found on the front or side (spine)of an item and also is shown in Spectrum, the online library catalog.    

  18. Call Numbers • Library of Congress (LC) call numbers are used by most academic and research libraries (including Ranger College). • LC call numbers begin with letters of the English alphabet. • Example: LB 2395 .C65 1991

  19. Call Numbers • What do call numbers mean? • Library of Congress call numbers have several parts that represent different things.   A call number Is like a book’s address in the library!
