Finding Materials

SuDoc Call # Classification System is used to organize Government Information on the 4th Floor. Government publications are organized by the Government agency that produced the publication, rather than organized by subject like the Library of Congress Call # System does for the books on the 1st-3rd floors. If you are looking for government documents, staff at the 4th floor desk will assist you.

J General legislative & executive material JZ International Relations
JA Political Science (General) K Law (General), Jurisprudence, Comparative and Uniform Law
