What is a CALL NUMBER?
.
A call numberis a group of numbers and/or lettersput together to tell youwhere in the libraryyou can find a book.Think of the call number as the ADDRESS of the book. It lets you easily find a single item out of thousands in the library!
A call number is locatedat the bottom of the book on the spine.

Fiction and Nonfiction Call Numbers
• Nonfiction call numbers begin with a Dewey classification number, and then the first three letters of the author’s last name on the 2nd line.
• In our library, Fiction call numbers begin with FIC, and then the first three letters of the author’s last name on the 2nd line. It’s still a call number even though there are no numbers in it!

000’s – 900’s• Non-fiction books are arranged numerically on the
shelf by the Dewey Decimal Classification System. Books in the Dewey Decimal system are filed digit by digit, not by whole number.
• When you shelve non-fiction books, the Dewey Decimal System puts together in a group all books with the exact same whole number. Next arrange these books by the last name of the author. If two or more authors have the same last name, then use the first name to arrange the books.973 Allen, Thomas

Dewey and Decimals
Think of a Dewey number as if it were dollars and cents! For example:
595.23Comes Before
595.30When in doubt, add one 0 (zero) or more if needed to even out the digits after the decimal.

letters of the author’s last name. When two books have the same number, then they go in alphabetical order
by the letters

Locating a Book on the Shelf
Remember this rule for how books are usually shelved!
You start at the left on the top shelf, and move to the right until the shelf ends. Then you go to the next shelf beneath that, and do the same-left to right, top to bottom.
