Bunch Library uses the Library of Congress (LC) classification system which organizes materials by subject. Each book has a unique call number (shelf address) that uses a combination of letters and numbers to tell you where the book is located and what it is about. Each call number may contain three, four or five lines.
Line 1: Defines the general subject class and subclass [B = Philosophy/Religion; BF = Psychology]
Line 2: Classification number - defines a narrower subtopic within the specified class [1078 = Dreams]
Line 3: Cutter number - represents the author’s name or the title of the work [.S5 = Ella Freeman Sharpe]
Line 4: Publication Year [1978]
Line 5: Copy number [c.1 - If a library has multiple copies of the same book, these will be identified by a copy number.]
LC call numbers are read from left to right, and from top to bottom. The letters at the beginning of the call number are alphabetical. The numbers immediately following are in basic numerical order. The cutter numbers are sorted first by the letter and then by the number as a decimal.
