SUNY Fredonia uses the Library of Congress Classification System (LCC) to assign call numbers to most print materials--books, periodicals, and music scores.
The Library of Congress Classification System is divided into large subject areas which are called "classes." All classes--and subclasses--begin with one, two, or three letters followed by a number which represents more specific aspects of a subject.
This page shows you how to read a call number and lists call number ranges for dance materials.
Books on dance have call numbers starting with GV 1580 and ending with GV 1799:
| LC Call Numbers | Description |
|---|---|
| GV1585 | Dictionaries, Encyclopedias |
| GV1588 | Philosophy (and Theory) |
| GV1589 | Study and Teaching |
| GV1590 → 1594 | General Works |
| GV1595 | Special Aspects of the Subject as a Whole |
| GV1597 | Dancing as a Profession |
| GV1600 | Dance Criticism, Appreciation |
| GV1645 → 1728 | Dance History |
| GV1743 | National Dances. Folk Dances & Dancing |
| GV1746 → 1771 | Social Dancing. Ballroom Dancing |
