This book, first published in 1939, deals with the elements of classification and cataloguing from the school library point of view. The Dewey, Cheltenham and Bliss schemes are fully examined and there is a chapter on the practical application of classification in the library. There are simplified rules for Author and Title catalogues, while the different kinds of subject catalogues are compared, and instructions given for their compilation. Many practical examples of cataloguing entries are shown.
Reprint of the original, first published in 1881.
Building upon the work of its predecessor, Sayer's Manual of Classification for Librarians, 5th ed., this new manual provides a clear overview of classification theory, policy, and practice, and provides a description of the major general classification systems. While much material is taken from the earlier editions virtually unchanged, an effort is made to make the information as current as possible when discussing work in progress today. Both US and British positions on issues are represented. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
This set, comprising out-of-print titles from The Library Association Series of Library Manuals and The Practical Library Handbooks, is a key guide to the early modernisation of librarianship. Systems set up then are still in use today, giving the books practical use today, as well as providing a valuable historical analysis of the discipline.
