Most language and literature books have call numbers beginning with P and are located on the 3rd floor. Those preceded by Ref are in the reference area on the 1st floor. Language dictionaries-monolingual, bilingual, slang, synonym, business, etc.-are located in the reference collection. Cultural and country information may be located in other classifications. Books written in a foreign language are classified according to the subject of the book. Click here to see a map The P classification is sub-divided by language and by national literatures.
