Library shelfmarks
A breakdown of the classification used in the 天美传媒影视 Library
Please Note:
The range guides display both the subject area and its corresponding 2-3 letter extension. Every effort has been made to ensure that the terminology used on the range guides is accurate, inclusive, and respectful.
We have consulted with the Brighton council traveller liaison team on appropriate terminology surrounding this community and have taken their advice in consultation with other available resources.
Due to the extensive number of countries and the breadth of our collection, it is not feasible to represent each country individually on a range guide. Therefore, we have followed the Library of Congress Classification Scheme alongside the United Nations Statistical Divisions: Geographic Regions to create groupings.
As noted on the United Nations Statistical Divisions website: “The assignment of countries or areas to specific groupings is for statistical convenience and does not imply any assumption regarding political or other affiliation of countries or territories.”
Please see the map below to find the Country you are looking for and the corresponding shelf-mark classification.
