- First, by collection:
- Main collection (circulating books - or more simply, books you can check out)
- Child Care Collection (books for the early childhood education program)
- Shaver Film collection (DVDs)
- Reserve collection (items put on reserve by professors)
- All of our items in the Main Collection are arranged by call numbers from the Library of Congress Classification System, which organizes every item by subject area. The Library of Congress Classification System is filed first alphabetically, then by number. You can read more about the system here, where we answer "How do I use call numbers to find a book on the shelf?"
