PDFOC1 | The Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) system is a general knowledge
organization tool continuously revised to keep pace with knowledge. The
system was conceived by Melvil Dewey in 1873 and first published in 1876. The
DDC is published by OCLC Online Computer Library Center, Inc. OCLC owns all
copyright rights in the Dewey Decimal Classification and licenses the system for various uses.
The DDC is the most widely used classification system in the world. Libraries in
more than 135 show more countries use the DDC to organize and provide access to their
collections, and DDC numbers are featured in the national bibliographies of more
than 60 countries. Libraries of every type apply Dewey numbers daily
and share these numbers through a variety of means (including WorldCat, the
OCLC Online Union Catalog). Dewey is also used for other purposes, e.g., as a
browsing mechanism for resources on the web. The DDC has been translated into over thirty languages. Translations of the latest full and abridged editions of the DDC are completed, planned, or underway in Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Icelandic, Italian, Korean, Norwegian, Russian, Spanish, and Vietnamese. | www.oclc.org/dewey |
