Items in the MIT Libraries
Books
are arranged by call number in all of the MIT Libraries. How
to use the Library of Congress Call Numbers.
Use our BookPage retrieval
service to have 4-week loan items ready for pick-up in 1 business
day if on the premises, within 2 business days if from another
campus library.
Journals
will either be shelved by call number (Humanities, Science)
or alphabetically by title (Barker Engineering, Dewey, Rotch, Aeronautics
and Astronautics, Lewis Music, and Lindgren).
PLEASE
NOTE: Journal call numbers are different from book call numbers:
after the initial letter(s) there are no numbers. An example of a journal call number: T.S34
