Books are shelved on the second and third floors of the library, and are organized by Library of Congress call numbers. These call numbers are associated with certain subjects, so related books will be shelved closer together. Once you find a book that matches your research needs, try browsing in that same section to find more relevant books.
Here are some useful call number ranges and their associated subjects:
TR250-265 Cameras
TR287-500 Photographic processing (darkroom technique)
TR510-545 Color photography
TR550-581 Studio and laboratory
TR590-620 Lighting
TR624-835 Applied photography (artistic, commercial, medical, photocopying)
TR925-1050 Photomechanical processes
If a book you need isn't available at the Goldstein Library, you can request a copy to be delivered from another library using Interlibrary Loan. This free service is available for students, staff, and faculty. Fill out the Interlibrary Loan Request Form to submit a request.
You can search Worldcat to find books at other libraries.
