Reading a Call Number

Books in the University of Arkansas Libraries are organized using Library of Congress call numbers. These call numbers consist of four or more lines of letters and numbers. The first line consists of one or two letters, read alphabetically. The second line is a whole number. The third line consists of a letter, read alphabetically, and a decimal number. The fourth line is the year of publication. Following lines may contain version or copy information.

Call numbers can be tricky! If you have trouble finding a book in the library, please let a staff member know. Librarians and library staff will be happy to assist you.

Google Books

Books that are out of copyright may be available from Google Books. Many other books may show a preview if one is available. Be sure to check our library catalog for electronic books, since the books we own electronically will not automatically show in Google Books.
