- Abstract
- The inspiration for categorising of fiction has been the observation that this kind of arrangement serves those clients who look for books by browsing the shelves. The evidence for this is that catgorisation has increased loans of fiction and helped clients to find older literature that current reviews have already left behind

- Abstract
- As part of her doctoral dissertation at Brabant Catholic University in the Netherlands A. Oomens recently held a survey to determine the relative merits of author and subject arrangements for non fiction collections. Although users browsing through the collections were more likely to find material of interest via a subject arrangement, those looking for a particular title were best served by an author arrangement. All users interviewed preferred the arrangement with which they were familiar

- Abstract
- Reclassification was a popular trend during the 1960s and 1970s for many academic libraries wanting to change from Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) to Library of Congress (LC) Classification. In 2002, Southern Illinois University at Carbondale's Morris Library changed from DDC to LC. If one academic library recently converted, might other DDC academic libraries consider switching, too? Conversely, for those academic libraries that remain with DDC, what are the reasons they continue with it? A survey of thirty-four DDC academic libraries in the United States and Canada determined what factors influence these libraries to continue using DDC, and if reclassification is something they have considered or are considering. The survey also investigated whether patrons of these DDC libraries prefer LC and if their preference influences the library's decision to reclassify. Results from the survey indicate that the issue of reclassification is being considered by some of these libraries even though, overall, they are satisfied with DDC. The study was unable to determine if patrons' preference for a classification scheme influenced a library's decision to reclassify.

- Abstract
- In the last 10 years a number of libraries in the Netherlands have developed akternative shelf arrangements to the standard SISO system. A survey undertaken at Felde children's library following the implementation of an alternative arrangement showed that children had been unaware of the change. In 1989 the Nederlands Bibliothekk en Lektuur Centrum (Dutch Centre for Libraries and Reading) began developing a system based on trials at 15 libraries. Further implementations of the system should take account of developments with automated catalogues

- Abstract
- Of the many shelf arrangement systems available for sound recordings there are two main types: those that classify and those that do not. To determine how libraries are arranging their sound recording collections today, a questionnaire was sent to 123 academic music libraries with collections of 5.000 or more sound recordings. Although LCC is used in 78% of the libraries of the libraries for books and in 74% of the libraries for scores, it is used in only 12% of the libraries for sound recordings. Accession number is the clear choice of academic music libraries for the shelving of sound recordings with 66% of the libraries surveyed using it

- Abstract
- In reclassifying a Library and Information Science library from DDC to LC, an attempt was made to concentrate books with related subject headings on the shelf for maximum shelf retrieval even in cases where the Subject Authorities or C.I.P. assign them varying numbers. Most of the shelf concentration was achieved either by selecting a single number for a given heading and then classifying all books with the heading in that number or by replacing the standard LC number for a heading with one which placed it together with related books on the shelf.

- Abstract
- The Thurgau Canton Library of the town of Frauenfeld/Switzerland contributes an insight into the way the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) was introduced there, as well as into the experience made with Dewey in everyday library practice for approx. five years. In the Canton Library the DDC is used not only for subject analysis but also for shelf arrangement of 13,000 media presently.

- Abstract
- There seems to be general agreement in the library community that a predictably ordered system of classification, leading to easy browsability of a library collection either in the stacks or in an OPAC, is an indispensible requirement for the kind of access patrons have come to expect, and for the reasonable success of the searching strategies they normally use. In this vein, examines the intrinsic value of browsing. In addition, with the help of some rough data compiled during a test conducted at Cornell University in the spring of 1994, estimates the cost of maintaining the collocative and alphabetical integrity of shelflist files for works by or about individual literary authors

- Abstract
- Describes plans to automate the LoC shelf list which consists of around 13.335.000 3x5 inch cards. The card shelf list records the holdings and location information for all monographs and some serial receiving LC classification and is used to determine the correct filing position and unique full card number for new materials so that they are properly shelved within the existing collection. A Shelflist Task Group, set up in Oct. 94, has recommended a retrospective conversion of the existing card shelf list to an online system which would support a call number assignment and maintenance and online inventory control. The benefits of an online shelf list are outlined and the outlook appears positive for a commitment on the part of the library to automate both the process of shelflisting and the shelf list as an inventory control

- Abstract
- Understanding book-locating behavior in libraries is important and leads to more effective services that support patrons throughout the book-locating process. This study adopted a design-based approach to incorporate robotic assistance in investigating the book-locating behaviors of child patrons, and developed a service robot for child patrons in library settings. We describe the iterative cycles and process to develop a robot to assist with locating resources in libraries. Stakeholders, including child patrons and librarians, were consulted about their needs, preferences, and performance in locating library resources with robotic assistance. Their needs were analyzed and incorporated into the design of the library robot to provide comprehensive support. The results of the study suggest that the library robot was effective as a mobile and humanoid service agent for providing motivation and knowledgeable guidance to help child patrons in the initially complicated sequence of locating resources.

- Abstract
- Collections of interactive games on diskette, CD-ROM and CD-i form an important element of public library collections in the Netherlands. However, the Dutch SISO shelf arragement lacks provision for such materials. At Oss public library an arrangement with numerous categories and subdivisions has been devised to accomodate games. Loan figures show that younger borrowers prefer strategy and adventure games, while older borrowers choose puzzle and utilities materials

- Abstract
- For a variety of reasons, reclassification was a popular project in libraries in the 1960s. Although such projects have faded from the limelight, some of the reasons for doing them remain valid today, i.e., a need to cut processing costs, participation in cooperative ventures, the inconvenience caused by working with a collection split between two classification systems, and continuing changes in the Dewey schedules. This article compares the steps needed for reclassifying in a manual environment with those required when the library has an in-house computer system. The comparison shows how using the latter makes a reclassification project more feasible than it would be in a totally manual library. The article also discusses various issues associated with reclassification in an automated environment such as the problem posed by a frozen public catalog and the combining of reclassification and conversion projects.

- Abstract
- This article presents a new idea on shelving printed books and finding books in libraries. The author advocates that traditional book classification number (TBCN) systems should be replaced by a better indexing method for books in libraries. The author proposes a new way of seeking books for library users wishing to locate them called a 'dynamic book subject number' (DBSN) system. The new system combines new indexing rules and automated system technology to create settings in which a book's 'subject number' can change rather than having a particular permanent classification number assigned to it. The new way encourages library users to seek books through a user-friendly cataloging system by choosing subjects from the embedded database. The database contains thousands of subjects with their corresponding Arabic codes. For printed books, the DBSN ushers in a new era in the relationship between library users and the books.
