Let's learn about call numbers! A call number serves as a book's address in the library, guiding you to where it resides on the shelves. Our library features two types of books: fiction and nonfiction. Today, we'll focus on creating call numbers for fiction books.

We'll also explore how to organize these books in alphabetical order.
