Textbooks and recommended readings for Anthropology courses may be in the High Demand Collection on level 2 of the Central Library.
Books are arranged on the shelves using the Library of Congress classification system.
GN is the general classification for Anthropology (Central Library level 9). However, because Anthropologists study every aspect of culture you will also find relevant books in other parts of the Library.
