UES Library
In the MAIN PART OF THE LIBRARY, the collection is divided into fiction and non-fiction. The fiction books line the north walls, and are filed in order by the author's last name. Look for signs at the top of the shelf to find your author. The non-fiction books are placed in subject order using the Dewey decimal system. Use the computer catalog, the pictures on the ends of the shelves, the popular subjects page, or the librarian to help you find the books you need.


nonfiction
The nonfiction section has lots of great biographies, books on cartooning, poetry, and much more.
