Find a Book on the Shelf

When you search for a relevant print book, look for PSU Library Shelves. Note the call number and floor to locate it yourself, or sign in and request it using the link Request from PSU Library.

Write down the floor, entire call number, the last name of the first author as well as the beginning of the title. Books are organized by subject, so you will find other books on the same topic in the same area. The Library of Congress classification system is an alpha-numeric system that starts with A in the basement and ends with Z on the 5th floor
