Note: The "JUV" designation appears on some items, but not all. It is a location designation only, and is not considered when reading call numbers.

(Example: JUV B CR)
B Nonfiction -- Classified by Dewey number, 000-999, with the author's cutter letter(s) below the Dewey number.
(Example: JUV 070.92 Ri)
C Fiction -- Books are marked either by an author's cutter letter only, or by an "F" for "fiction" and the author's cutter letter(s) on the next line.
(Example: Ga or JUV F Be)
D Picture books -- Marked with a "P" for "picture" and the author/illustrator's cutter letter(s) on the next line.
