The books in Cook Library are organized using the Library of Congress Call Classification System. While it isn't as intuitive a design as you would find in a bookstore, there is method behind the madness! Serendipitous browsing can be a fun way to find new inspiration for your art. Cook's circulating collection begins on the 5th floor with call number range A-M and continues onto the 4th floor with books in the call number ranges N-Z and our juvenile books collection. Library floor plans and directory information can be found here.
