Government Documents are
classified in an alpha-numeric order called a "sudoc number",
which consists of a letter or letters and numbers following
the letter. The letter stands for the agency that generates
the document, for example, "A" for Agriculture, "C" for
Commerce, “I" for Interior, "L" for Labor and so forth. Not
all letters are the same as the agency, for example "AE” comes
from the National Archives and Records Administration, and “Y"
comes from Congress.
Some documents are in the stacks and in the Reference Section,
others are filed along the wall of the Second Floor.
