Mathematics books arranged by MSC

The mathematics books collection of the former Mathematics Library includes around 26.000 books. These are arranged according to the MSC Classification (the Mathematics Subject Classification of the American Mathematical Society).

Mathematics Subject Classification


  • Textbooks have the classification number 00-01 (school textbooks) and xx-01 within every main class (e.g. 03-01, 60-01...)

  • Reference works have the classification number 00A20.

    Example for MSC classification numbers:
    Aufstellung nach MSC
    05 Combinatorics
    05C Graph Theory
    05C85 Graph Algorithms
    05C90 Applications
    05C99 None of the above but in this section

Over the next years, the MSC mathematics collection will be integrated into the main library MAT collection and shelved by the TU Wien classification. Please refer to the online catalogue for up-to-date information on where to find each item.
