Finding books

New Zealand History books are shelved in both the Central Library (Level 4) and Macmillan Brown Library.

We use the Library of Congress classification system for arrangement. Every item in the Library has a unique call number which can be found by using the Library Catalogue.

Books which are in high demand for particular courses are held on Restricted Loan. To see the list for your course, type the course code into the Course code search in the Library Catalogue, eg abcd123
