UNH-4U (UNH Durham): Books (Print and Electronic)

Watch this short video to learn how to read a Library of Congress Classification call number so you can find books in the stacks. 

Books are good places to acquire in-depth information on a topic.

Remember: you won't necessarily be reading a book from cover to cover.

Tips:

• Use the index in the back and table of contents in the front to find relevant information quickly.
• Check the bibliography to find other sources of similar information.

Monographs ("single - writing") are books dedicated to one subject.
