International Business  

The Auraria Library's International Business books and DVD's are located in several areas.  These resources can potentially be found in the Reference, Periodicals, Government Documents, Reserves/Media and 2nd Floor collections in the Library (all DVD's are found in Reserves/Media only). Most materials in Government Documents, and all of those on the 2nd Floor (outside of Archives), can be checked out. Those in the other collections mentioned cannot.

Within each collection, materials are usually arranged and located by call numbers. The call number refers to a subject. Most of the library's materials in the areas of International Business are assigned the following call numbers.
