How to Read a Call Number

Image outlines instructions on how to read a call number. Read the first line in alphabetical order. This refers to the subject. Read the second line as a whole number. This refers to the subcategory. Read the third (and fourth, if present) line in combination: First read the letter alphabetically then read the number as a decimal. Read the last line in chronological order. This is the publication date.
