Open the full record to see how many print copies of a title the Library has bought and how many are available to borrow, e.g. (3 copies, 2 available).

The alphanumeric code (shelfmark or classmark), T11 Sar., is where a book is shelved in the library "Location" you need to go to borrow a copy.

• The first part, T11, of the classmark is where other books on the same topic are kept.
• The last part, Sar., identifies your book amongst others on the same topic.
• The information in brackets, (STANDARD LOAN), indicates how long a book can be borrowed.
