Most of the nursing 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.RT50.5 .H35 1999. 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.
Refer to tab "How to Read Call Numbers" to learn more.
