Call Numbers and the Dewey Decimal System
The media center has six different sections: periodicals, everybody, fiction, nonfiction, biography, and reference. When you use Destiny Quest to look up books, each title has a unique call number. In the above picture, all of the Super Chicken Nugget Boy books have FIC LEW as their call number. The first section of the call number tells us what section of the media center the book can be found. In this case, FIC stands for the fiction section. The next set of letters LEW are the first three of the author's last name.
The different sections have different call numbers
Everybody is E
Fiction is FIC
Biography is B
Reference is REF
and Nonfiction is a number 593.2 (yes, we still use the Dewey Decimal System!)
