Walker Library is moving from the Dewey Decimal System of classification to the Library of Congress (LC) system. During this process, we are using both systems, with LC books and Dewey books on different floors. You can find a specific book's location and call number in the Library Catalog. We currently have books from all subjects in both systems; books acquired since December 2020 or loaned and returned since that time are classified in LC.
Books with LC call numbers are currently on the 2nd floor. Click each main heading for a more detailed call number breakdown.
