Locating Materials in the Libraries

Below is a general guide to locating materials in the Libraries. However, please verify the location in CBBcat to be sure.

A note on prefixes:

  • Call numbers prefaced with “ART” will be in the Bixler Art and Music Library.
  • “REF” and “OVRSZ” are also in specialized locations within each library.

NOTE: Books formerly in the Olin Science Library are currently housed in the Library Annex and are available upon request. New science books can be found in the NEW BOOK section in Miller.
