Dewey Powerpoint
Attached are lecture notes I use with students to introduce the topic and begin practice in locating books in the library. I follow this with a guided tour of our library catalog on the screen followed by individual, partner, or small-group practice using the catalog to find call numbers and then locate books on the shelf.
