For print books, the location and call number (e.g., P 96 15 F56 2018) will help you retrieve an item on the shelves.
Reading Call Numbers
Only print books are assigned a call number. It works a bit like an address, helping you find a book on the shelves.
Books on the same subject are housed together, because of the Library of Congress (LC) classification system.
E.g., P 96 15 F56 2018
