Find Books, Videos and Periodicals

I find a book from the library online catalog but why cannot I locate it 
on the shelf?

 Please ask library staff for assistance or call the Library (Sugar Land) at 281-243-8416 or 8417 or (Wharton) at 979-532-6509, 6354 or 6953.

Starting fall semester 2003, library has converted the entire collection from the Dewey Decimal System to the Library of Congress Classification System.  Dewey call number begins with numbers.  LC call number begins with letters and includes the year of publication.

For now the majority of collection are still shelved under Dewey number.  During the transition, if you cannot find any item, please search the library online catalog and click on the title, which is underlined in blue to see full record.    In the page of full record, the “Added entry” listed Dewey number indicates the shelf location while the Call number of book is LC number.  Please see the example below:
