Useful shelf numbers

Library books are arranged by the Dewey Decimal classification scheme whereby each subject is represented by a number.

You wil find books on the same subject will have the same number. The shelfmark is preceded by the letter D and will be followed by 3 letters, which are usually the first 3 letters of the author's name.

Here are some useful mathematics and statistics shelfmarks.

D 510 Mathematics

D 512 Algebra

D 513 Arithmetic

D 514 Topology

D 515 Analysis, calculus

D 516 Geometry

D 519 Probabilities and applied mathematics

D 519.5 Statistics
