    Abstract
    The 4 volume set of the 21st edition of the DDC was published in Jul 1996, and its electronic version, Dewey for Windows (on CD-ROM) was introduced the following month. Presents some highlights from both, and gives an update on research that is aimed at helping the DDC continue to be the knowledge organization tool for the next century. Ed. 21 includes 3 major revisions: 350-354 Public adminsitration; 370 Education; and 560-590 Life sciences. Changes have been made in other disciplines to address cultural, social and political issues, including an attempt to reduce the Christian bias in 200 (Religion). Further expansions to computer science have been required. Several structural changes should make DDC21 easier to apply and exploit the new possibilities of electronic distribution.
