Call number systems

From LibraryWorld:

There are several different call numbers you can use. This selection is based on your preference, however, most MARC records downloaded from our database or the Library of Congress have multiple call numbers cataloged in one record. Here are some examples:

050 $abc: Library of Congress
082 $a2: Dewey Decimal Number (DDCN)
090 $a: Local Call Number
050 $abc: Library of Congress Call Number
