Step
5)
Write
down the call number.
The
call number tells you what floor or where in the
library the book is located.
There
are signs through out the library (especially next to
the elevator and the reference desk) that look
something like this:
A
- AN Second floor.
or
P
- S Fifth floor
The
first two letters of a call number are often listed
next to the floor the book is on.
That
means that if a book has a call number starting with
A through AN you should take the stairs or elevator
to the floor listed next to those letters.
Call
numbers basically work alphabetically and numerically
from left to right.
Step
6)
Once
you get to that floor there are signs at the
top of the bookshelves listing the first two letters
of the call numbers you will find on that row.
If
your call number starts with PQ - Go to the proper
floor and find the book shelf labeled with PQ.
There
are plenty of interesting fiction and non fiction books
you can look up. Have fun with your research.
Remember- you can learn anything you want.

There
are some basic rules for most libraries.
It really
helps when everyone gets along with each other.
Some of the most important ones are listed below.
No blocking aisles or doorways
No noise and Other Disturbances
- no loud talk or music.
Respecting Other's Rights
- Patrons should not interfere with the use of the
Library by other patrons or by Library employees performing
their duties.
Do not Interfere with other library
patrons' use of the library because of extremely poor
hygiene. - Librarians
themselves are not allowed to wear perfume to work because
some patrons (visitors) have allergies and are sensitive
to smells. Most complaints from other patrons
come from this type of sensitivity.
Shirt
and shoes must be worn.
No
solicitation - Patrons shall not solicit
funds or sell any article or service.
No Theft or damaging of
property.
No smoking.
No Animals
If you follow these rules the
library will be a wonderful place for you to look up
information, read books and use the internet.
