HKUST Library uses the US Library of Congress Classification System to classify materials. The main Ocean Science literatures can be found in the class GC (Oceanography). However, due to its interdisciplinary nature, Ocean Science related materials can also be found in other classes, such as class GE (Environmental Sciences), class QC (Physics), class QD (chemistry), QR (microbiology), class T (Technology-General) and class TC (Hydraulic and Ocean Engineering). The following are subdivisions of the class GC and the locations of various types of materials.
