Our Journey around the Ingram Library…

2. We started our journey by using the book catalogue. In the search box
we typed our desired topic, anorexia. We used the book catalogue
because it will create a list of all the accessible books related to the
topic. Clicking on one of the books allowed us to get more details on
the book, its location and if it is available to be checked out.

3. The screen to the left
appeared after we click on the
book Starving In the Silence.
On this page, we are provided
with very useful information
such as which floor, what self,
the book status, author, call
number, etc. Without all of
this material finding a book
could take hours. Using the
book catalogue makes book
searching easy and efficient.

4. Out of all the vital information available, the call number is the most
important. The call number will lead us to the exact self that the book
is located. After finding the self, the call number will help us
determine the very spot the book sits.

5. Because the call number is so
essential, we wrote it down on a call
number card. The card will help us
remember what direction we need to
be headed. Next, we continued our
journey to the 3rd floor.

6. When we arrived on the third floor, we used
the signs on the side of the selves to find the
first part of our call number.
RC 552
Our number, RC 552, is between RC 500 and
RC 569.5, therefore we know Starving In the
Silence was to be found on the left side of
the self.
After we turn the corner of the self, we
began to think our journey was going to
get stressful, but because we had our call
number card we had no need to worry.
The books are in order on the self
according to their numbers, this way
they are easily found and identified.
We then used the next two numbers on
the card, A5 and R63, to point us to the
book we were looking for.

8. Finally, when we matched the call
number with the call number located
on the book, Starving in the Silence.
Matching the two numbers is
important in order to find the correct
book that we were looking for.
Our Journey was a success!!
