BOUND JOURNALS RESHELVED
July 18, 1994
The Engineering bound journal volumes (1983-1994) are now in
order by CALL NUMBER; and the shelving of the bound journals
starts in the middle of the PERIODICAL ROOM.
To find the call number you need, look up the title on UCLID.
Call number order puts all the journals in a subject area
together on the shelves. It also reduces confusion due to
title variations and changes.
UNBOUND journals are still in alphabetical order by title, as are
the bound journals on the balcony (1970-1982).
