Publisher's Synopsis
New in paperback! In this fundamental revision of Susan Akers' classic, the authors give the rules for using Dewey Decimal Classification tables clearly and briefly. They do not suggest all the ways of cataloging a small library, treat LC classification or subject headings (or other systems), or explain the use of computers in cataloging, but they do discuss the continuing impact of automation on even the smallest library's catalogs. The discussion and examples— almost all new—reflect AACR2, Sears (11th ed.), and Abridged Dewey. Cloth edition published in 1984.
