    Abstract
    Classification research at any point in time is the resultant product of various philosophical, technological, social, economic, and political forces. This address attemps first to give a partial description of the present state of classification research as determined by one of these forces: philosophy, in particular the 20th century analytic philosophies of logical positivism, linguistic analysis and systems analysis; and, second, assuming the continued influence of these, to speculate upon the future of classification research in terms of its prospects, problems and possibilities

    Abstract
    This article discusses some of Ranganathan's contributions to the productive, practical and theoretical aspects of classification science. These include: (1) a set of design criteria to guide the designing of schemes for knowledge / subject classification; (2) a conceptual framework for organizing the universe of subjects; and (3) an understanding of the general principles underlying subject disciplines and classificatory languages. It concludes that Ranganathan has contributed significantly to laying the foundations for a science of subject classification.
