Journals

Journals may be found on the lower-ground floor of the Library. They are arranged alphabetically by title within their main single- or two-letter (Library of Congress) LC classification. The alphabetic sequence is word-by-word excluding both initial and internal stop words (e.g.; of, for, and, the, und, die, et, la, etc.)

Many journals are shelved in mobile shelving units. Library users are asked to follow the instructions on the safe use of these units at all times - in particular always to check that no-one is using an aisle before closing it.

Major journal classmarks used in the Moore Library are:

Again, a small number of titles transferred from the Materials Science Library are shelved separately pending their amalgamation into the main journals sequence.
