In the ISEP Library, books are organized by subject based on the Universal Decimal Classification table (UDC). In order to arrange the books on the same topic are together, we use the call number - an alphanumeric indication composed of the UDC notation + the first three (3) letters of the work's title, literally. The call number is printed on a label and placed at the top of the spine.
