HISTORY: A BROWSING GUIDE TO MEMORIAL LIBRARY STACKSThis guide provides some suggestions for browsing the Memorial Library collection in the field of History. A number of classification systems have been used to organize the materials in the Memorial Library collection. The two main systems used to arrange the European history materials are the "Cutter" and the "Library of Congress" classification systems. Generally, the "Cutter" system was used to assign call numbers to materials added to the collection before 1970. There are approximately 214,000 titles in the "Cutter" collection. The Library of Congress system has been used to assign call numbers to materials added to the collection after 1970. The "Cutter" collection is located on Stack Level 4-South: oversized "Cutter" materials in the Basement. Classification conversion table
