How do I use the call number to find my book?

The Sojourner Truth Library uses the Library of Congress Classification System for the call numbers it assigns to most of the items in its collections, including Reference, in-depth books (Stacks), and Media.

The Library of Congress Classification arranges materials by subjects. The first sections of the call number represent the subject of the item. Because books are classified by subject, you can often find several helpful books on the same shelf, or nearby.

This video created by the Douglas College Library offers some helpful tips for reading a Library of Congress Call number to locate an item
