Most of the Medical Laboratory / Biomedical Sciences books can be found on the First Floor (1/F) of the Library.
Each physical item is labeled with a call number, which contains both letters and numbers representing the source's location in the library, e.g. RB37 .L68 2020. Books on the same subject will be placed in the same range on bookshelves. When you search a print book through OneSearch, you will get a call number, which tells you where you can find the book.
