A library catalog is a database of the materials held by a library. This can include books, periodicals, digital resources, and other types of materials. A library catalog is used to help users find the materials they are looking for, and it typically includes information such as the title, author, publication date, and a brief description of the material. Users can search the library catalog by keyword, title, author, or subject to find specific materials. Many libraries also have an online catalog that can be accessed remotely, allowing users to search for materials and place holds on items from anywhere with an internet connection.

A call number is a unique identification code assigned to a book or other library material that is used to organize and arrange the materials on the library shelves. Call numbers are usually found on the spine of a book and are used to locate a specific item in the library. Call numbers are usually assigned using a standardized system, such as the Library of Congress Classification system or the Dewey Decimal Classification system, which allows for efficient organization and retrieval of materials.
