Mythology: Books

Browsing in the Library

Since mythology can be found across disciplines and be found in various contexts, it can be a bit difficult to browse the library shelves for books about myth. It isn't impossible, though!

Here are some common call numbers (letters and numbers on the spine label of a book that help us locate a book on the shelf) where you can casually browse and serendipitously find some books about different aspects of mythology . . .

  • Mythology (BL)       

  • History (C,D,E,F)

  • Anthropology (GN)

  • Legend (P)                 

  • Religion (B)          

  • Folklore (GR)           

  • Literature (P)                

  • Storytelling  (LB)

(To find the call numbers, you can either ask library staff, or find the directional signs on each floor and near the elevators. They will list the letters found on each floor.)
