Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scheme called Dewey Decimal Classification was devised in 1876 by Melvil Dewey. Now it has an incredible history of 136 years of boundless success. This scheme is widely used in majority of libraries in about 150 countries. This is the result of continuous revision that the 23rd edition of DDC has been published in July 2011. No other classification scheme has published so many editions. Some welcome changes have been made in DDC 23. The present book is an attempt to explain with suitable examples, the salient provisions of DDC 23. The book is written in a simple and lucid language so that even the students do not face any difficulty. The examples in the book are explained in a step-by-step procedure. It is hoped that this book would be of great help and would be very useful to the library professionals at large, library classifiers, in general and library and information science students, in particular.

This book was released on 2014-12-16 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A proven resource for librarians and students, this updated classic opens the door to understanding current library cataloging processes, shows you how to use them to create standard catalog records, and provides guidance in managing the cataloging workflow. Library cataloging and classification tools are constantly improving, making this concise guide a necessity for any librarian or library student seeking improved understanding of the practical process of cataloging today. With the release of RDA, a new code for description, and a new edition of Dewey Classification, it's time for every library to add this fifth edition of a classic reference to your resources. Two Margaret Mann Citation winners update you on the five basic steps in standardized library cataloging: describing and adding access points for resources; assigning subject headings using Sears List or Library of Congress subject headings; classifying them using the Dewey Decimal or Library of Congress classification systems; and digitizing the resulting records. The book opens with a brief look at the environment in which cataloging now functions, especially in response to advances in digital access. It clarifies terminology, explores new and changed applications, and enhances understanding of basic principles for those responsible for creating cataloging data. To get you ready for tomorrow, the edition closes with a brief look at trends likely to affect cataloging in the foreseeable future.

Book Dewey Decimal Classification

Download or read book Dewey Decimal Classification written by Mohinder Partap Satija and published by Ess Ess Publication. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book simply aims to introduce the students to the process of assigning and especially synthesising the class numbers by the 19th edition of the DDC. The book is student-oriented and only aims at them. The chapters and the examples have been graded and no background, whatsoever, has been assumed on the part of the users. Though aimed at the beginner, yet it provides a complete course to train the students in the techniques of subject analysis and number building involving the use of seven auxiliary tables and multiple synthesis. The graded process of number building may mirror before the students the increasing edition by edition faceted nature of the system. To avoid verbosity the number building has been depicted through equations and facet formulae. Another aim is to be simple and clear. Many examples have been taken from 21st century literature; its theory and bibliography have been updated to the latest 23rd edition (2011) with an appendix on abridged edition (2012). It charts the course of the DDC from the 19th to 23rd editions
