Patron: Do you have your Dewey Decimal system posted anywhere?
Me: Well, no, we don't have it posted, I'm afraid. Is there something I can help you find?
Patron: No, I just wanted to browse.
Me: Okay, well, was there are particular subject you were looking to browse in?
Patron: No, I just wanted to browse.
Me: ::gives up, leads patron to clearly-marked non-fiction section:: Well, the non-fiction starts here and ends here. Enjoy!
I guess I don't understand how the lack of a sign listing what the different call numbers are kept them from browsing.
