HOW TO LOCATE A BOOK
If you are looking for all the books on a particular subject, it is convenient to browse the shelves for that subject. Library books are being arranged within each collection by their Subject Codes using Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) System. This process is under way and steps are being taken to speed it up.
DDC uses a hierarchical coding system which means sub groups fall within the same array of codes. For example-
Computer Science Engineering | 004 |
Mechanical Engineering | 620 |
Electronics Engineering | 621.38 |
DDC codes for other main subject groups are:
000-099 General Works (Computer Science)
100-199 Philosophy
200-299 Religion
300-399 Social Sciences
400-499 Language
500-599 Natural Sciences (Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry)
600-699 Applied Sciences (MECH, EEE, ECE)
800-899 Literature
Borrowing Books:
