Classifying in Dewey - getting started
  • Look up your topic in Relative Index or use the
    summaries
  • Go to the schedule
  • Check in the hierarchy to make sure the topic is
    contextually correct
  • Write the number down and follow any additional
    instructions

Table 1. Standard Subdivisions
The following notation is never used alone, but
may be used as required with any regular schedule
number, e.g., workbooks (07 in this table) in
arithmetic (513) 513.076. When adding to a
number from the schedules, always insert a
decimal point between the third and fourth digits
of the complete number.

Adding specificity - Table 1
Standard Subdivisions
  • Add (concatenate) to any number from schedule
  • Only one standard subdivision allowed
  • Use 04 only when directed to do so
  • Consult table of preference when two or more
    subdivisions appear applicable

28
Adding subdivisions - number of zeros (2)
  • Types of instructions to indicate when different
    number of zeros must be used
  • Notation in the number column
  • Footnotes leading to an add table where
    subdivisions are supplied
  • Footnotes from the add instruction itself
    stipulating the use of extra zeros
