MU Libraries shelves books using the Library of Congress call number system. In this system each subject area is represented by a letter. Check the Library of Congress Classification guide for more details.
If you find a call number that seems interesting, use the book location guide to find it within Ellis Library.
And as always, MERLIN gives exact call numbers for specific books.
