Call Numbers
Mason Libraries use the Library of Congress (LC) Classification system which arranges items by subject so that
similar subjects are shelved and/or grouped together.
Call numbers appear in two formats (in several lines on the spines of
books, and in a single line in the catalog) and are read from
top to bottom and left to right, as shown below:
