Locating books in the library

After locating a book in CLICnet, make sure you have the following information:

•Call Number (this is the "address" of the book)
•Status (whether the book is Available or checked out)
•Location/Floor

Remember:
Call numbers are book shelf-addresses, unique to a single book. They indicate where a book is located in the library. Books are arranged alphabetically by the beginning letters of their call numbers. You will find the call number attached to or written on the spine of the book.

Once you find the book in the stacks, browse the shelf/shelves around it -- you might find additional books that will be helpful to you.
