Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Adjustable Classification for Libraries: With Index When this 'is 'ac'm'; it will be necessary, or at least desirable, to renumber the divisions under each main class, and change the reference numbers in the index. In each main class the class letter alone is given to general works covering the whole or a considerable portion of the subject matter of the class at large. Thus B would mark all the general treatises or dictionaries on the Useful Arts, G general collections of Biography. The letters from M to Z can be reserved for. Special or local collections which are kept separate. It has not been thought advisable to provide for an elaborate system of sub-classes, divisions, and sub divisions, but simply to number in one sequence of even numbers each sub-class or division in its order. This enables the class of most books to be easily expressed by the plain notation of a letter and a figure or two - G 2, B 30, 'f 196, etc. The odd numbers are reserved for fresh divisions of the main classes, and it is thought this feature will be found useful in most libraries where new subjects are continually cropping up.

Download or read book A Classification and Subject Index for Cataloguing and Arranging the Books and Pamphlets of a Library written by Melvil Dewey and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1876 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The plan of the following Classification and Index was developed early in 1873. It was the result of several months' study of library economy as found in some hundreds of books and pamphlets, and in over fifty personal visits to various American libraries. In this study, the author became convinced that the usefulness of these libraries might be greatly increased without additional expenditure. Three years practical use of the system here explained, leads him to believe that it will accomplish this result; for with its aid, the catalogues, shelf lists, indexes, and cross references essential to this increased usefulness, can be made more economically than by any other method which he has been able to find. The system was devised for cataloguing and indexing purposes, but it was found on trial to be equally valuable for numbering and arranging books and pamphlets on the shelves.

Download or read book Cataloging and Classification written by Lois Mai Chan and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth edition of the late Lois Mai Chan's classic Cataloging and Classification covers the analysis and representation of methods used in describing, organizing, and providing access to resources made available in or through libraries. Since the last edition published in 2007, there have been dramatic changes in cataloging systems from the Library of Congress. The most notable being the shift from AACR2 to Resource Description and Access (RDA) as the new standard developed by the Library of Congress. With the help of the coauthor, Athena Salaba, this text is modified throughout to conform to the new standard. Retaining the overall outline of the previous edition, this text presents the essence of library cataloging and classification in terms of three basic functions: descriptive cataloging, subject access, and classification. Within this framework, all chapters have been rewritten to incorporate the changes that have occurred during the interval between the third and fourth editions. In each part, the historical development and underlying principles of the retrieval mechanism at issue are treated first, because these are considered essential to an understanding of cataloging and classification. Discussion and examples of provisions in the standards and tools are then presented in order to illustrate the operations covered in each chapter. Divided into five parts—a general overview; record production and structure, encoding formats, and metadata records; RDA; subject access and controlled vocabularies; and the organization of library resources—each part of the book begins with a list of the standards and tools used in the preparation and processing of that part of the cataloging record covered, followed by suggested background readings selected to help the reader gain an overview of the subject to be presented. This book is the standard text for the teaching and understanding of cataloging and classification.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The new edition of this essential work has raised the bar on an already excellent text about cataloguing." - Library Journal, Starred Review The fifth edition of the classic Cataloging and Classification covers the analysis and representation of methods used in describing, organizing, and providing access to resources made available in or through libraries. Since the last edition, there have new developments in cataloging, with the introduction of the IFLA Library Reference Model (LRM) and the new, official RDA, following the 3R Project. This text presents the essence of library cataloging and classification in terms of four basic functions: descriptive cataloging, authority work, subject access, and classification. Within this framework, content has been re-organized, all chapters have been rewritten, and new chapters have been introduced to incorporate the changes that have occurred during the interval between the four and fifth editions. In each part, the historical development and underlying principles of the retrieval mechanism at issue are treated first, because these are considered essential to an understanding of cataloging and classification. Discussion and examples of provisions in the standards and tools are then presented to illustrate the operations covered in each chapter. Divided into seven parts—a general overview; record production and structure, encoding formats, and metadata records; RDA (original and official); subject access and controlled vocabularies; the organization of library resources; encoding & records of bibliographic and authority data; and cataloging ethics--this book includes lists of the standards and tools used in the preparation and processing of cataloging records covered, lists of RDA elements, and sample records. Its companion website with interactive learning activities and supplementary materials located at catclassintro.org make it a true multimedia tool.
