Hi Karen,
If you have access to ClassWeb (https://classweb.org/Menu/ ), sadly not a free resource, you can do a subject browses
that you pinpoint the range for you.
If you need something free, the
full LC Classification schedules are online as pdfs at:
https://www.loc.gov/aba/publications/FreeLCC/freelcc.html But it would take some searching on your part to find the correct range for the subject “German sculpture” in the pdf for ” N- Text”.
Another free option is
OCLC Classify ( http://classify.oclc.org/classify2/ ) which allows you to type in a subject heading and will bring up titles matching that subject if you click on one it will give the LC call number
and then you can use that number to get the range from the above listed schedule.
I hope this briefly list helps!
Best regards,
Tamara Fultz

Subject: [External] - [ARLIS-L] More help with LC classification
I am still working on a "collections ecosystem" project and am trying to find a way to look up the call number ranges for specific areas of art, such as German sculpture or Chinese painting.
I've found this document online, which breaks down a little bit when you click on the subclasses:
But it doesn't break down nearly as much as I need. Can anyone help me find a more complete breakdown for the Ns and TRs?
thanks,
