Code for Classifiers : Principles Governing the Consistent Placing of Books in a System of Classification

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Code for Classifiers' is a foundational treatise on the principles and practices of book classification within library systems. Written by William Stetson Merrill, this work serves as a practical guide for librarians and catalogers, offering a set of consistent rules to ensure that books are placed logically and helpfully within a collection. Rather than proposing a new classification scheme, the book focuses on the decision-making process-the 'code'-that allows classifiers to apply existing systems like the Dewey Decimal Classification or the Library of Congress Classification with precision and uniformity.
