A shelf list is a specialized bibliographical inventory, library catalog record, or collection audit arranged in exact order by Dewey Decimal or Library of Congress call numbers rather than by author or title. Traditionally used by professional librarians to conduct physical inventory checks, audit library collections, and ensure every single book is accounted for in its proper physical position, a shelf list provides a direct spatial map of a library's holdings as they sit on the physical shelves in the stacks.
