For books from the Book Collection:

1. Read the Call Number.
   Note that the Library adopts Library of Congress classification scheme. Break the call numbers into four lines - this is how the call number is shown on the book label. The capital letters in the first line represent the subject area that book falls in. Read from left to right: A to Z, and smaller number to larger number. The last line indicates the year of publication, which can help you quickly identify the new books.
2. Check Call Number Locations. In this example, TD locates at G/F.
3. Locate the bookshelf. 
4. Get the book and check it out at the Service Counter at P/F. If you can not find the book, ask a library staff for help.

For books from other locations:

• Reserve Collection: P/F (right next to Service Counter)
• Reference Collection: 
  • Call No. HM - Z: 3/F
  • Call No. A - HJ: G/F
• Remote Store: Available by filling online request form.
