BooksYou may want to browse the shelves for math books just to see the range of books owned by St. Catherine Library. The circulating collection is located in the lower level of the library. Books are shelved in Library of Congress call number order. Math books can be found in the QA call number area (see below). You can also browse the shelves of the CLIC libraries all at once by using the LC Call Number menu in CLICnet. Choose this menu, then type in a call number within the range listed above. The resulting screens will list materials in call number order. This is not an efficient way to find a specific author or title or topic, but it is a good way to get an idea of the selection of materials available to you.
