Books, journals, kits and DVDs in the UniSC Library are shelved by subject. Call numbers on books and journals appear most often on the spine or on the front cover if the spine is too narrow.
Here's a sample call number, with explanation of how this affects the way the item is shelved:
LB - describes general subject area; shelved alphabetically
2395 - narrows subject area; numerical order (whole number)
M44 - subject area OR author (alphabetical then decimal order)
2012 - year of publication, numerical order
