Books are arranged by subject using the Dewey Classification System. This system arranges books by subject. Each book is assigned a shelfmark number which is a series of numbers followed by letters. The number identifies the subject and the longer the number the more specific the subject is. This number can be found on the spine of the book.
The list of shelfmark numbers at the end of the shelves provide a comprehensive guide. Most books on history can be found on the first floor in the 300s and 900s sections.
The map below shows the layout of the library.
