To locate a book within Gumberg Library, you will need the book’s call number. When searching QuickSearch, the online catalog, you will find the call number and location of the print material. Please note: the record will state if the material is “Available” in green and “Not Available” in red text. If the material is not available, the record will provide the due date rather than the call number of the book.
If you only have a call number for a book, note the first letter of the call number and refer to the list below to learn on which floor the book is located.
