Call Numbers

Call numbers tell you where a book is shelved. In the Francis A. Drexel Library, we use Library of Congress Classification which groups titles by subject matter.

Classics is an interdisciplinary field, so there is no one area to browse and find all relevant sources. The following call number ranges will help you get started. Click on the links for more details:

PA: Greek and Latin languages and literature
DE: The ancient Mediterranean world
DF1-DF289: Ancient Greece
DG11-DG365: Ancient Rome

NA210-340: Architecture
NB69-169: Sculpture
NC55-69: Drawing
