LIBRARY OF CONGRESS CLASSIFICATION NUMBERS

Classification System. Although most photography material is classified
as "TR: Photography," photographically illustrated books and materials
on various topics related to photography can be found at other classification
numbers as well. Consult "Einstein," the library catalog, using
author, title, subject, or keyword approaches to ensure a complete
