Web of Science is a platform consisting of multiple databases designed to support scientific and scholarly research. Content spans multiple disciplines, document types and formats.
Library books are arranged by the Dewey Decimal classification scheme whereby each subject is represented by a number.
You will 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 512 Algebra
D 513 Arithmetic
D 514 Topology
D 515 Analysis, calculus
D 516 Geometry
D 519 Probabilities and applied mathematics
