What is the difference between call number and accession number in library classification systems?

An accession number, also known as a catalogue number, is a unique number given to each new item that is acquired by a library. The numbers are typically in sequential order, and aren't usually used more than once, even if an item is removed or replaced within the collection, regardless of whether or not there is already an identical copy of the item in the library's holdings. As such, an accession number is helpful in distinguishing multiple copies of the same book, as well as different volumes (or editions) of the same title.It often consists of the year that the item was acquired, followed by a number that reflects the order with which it was received in relation to other items during that year. For example: 77:125 may be an accession number for the 125th book that was added to a collection in 1977. Alternatively, a library may simply use a continuous numerical sequence (e.g. 0000001, 0023900, 51, 235).A call number is a unique code that has been assigned by a cataloguer to an item and that is affixed to both the inside and outside of the item. This number is used in the bibliographic record for that specific item, it identifies which copy it is (particularly when more than one copy of an identical book is present), and it indicates the relative location of the item on the shelf.Usually, a call number is created by using the classification number (from either the Library of Congress Classification System or the Dewey Decimal System) for the title, followed by additional information to indicate such things as publication date, volume number, copy number, and/or location symbol.For example, the following are possible call numbers:PN 2035.H336 1991480.0924 W3PS 3525 .I52 1973aHM 881 S635 2011 v.1
