- Abstract
- The work of the Belgian internationalist and documentalist, Paul Otlet (1868-1944), and his colleagues in Brussles, forms an important and neglected part of the history of information science. They developed a complex of organizations that are similar in important respects functionally to contemporary hypertext/hypermedia systems. These organizations effectively provided for the integration on bibliographic, image and textual databases. Chunks of text on cards or separate sheets were created according to 'the monographic principle' and their physical organization managed by the UDC, created by the Belgians from Melvil Dewey's DDC. This article discusses Otlet's concept of the Office of Documentation and, as examples of an approach to actual hypertext systems, several special Offices of Documentation set up in the International Office of Bibliography. In his Traité de Documentation of 1934, one of the first systematic treatises on what today we would call information science, Otlet speculated imaginatively about telecommunications, text-voice conversion, and what is needed in computer workstations, though of course he does not use this terminology. By assessing how the intellectual paradigm of 19th century positivism shaped Otlet's thinking, this study suggests how, despite its apparent contemporaneity, what he proposed was in fact conceptually different from the hypertext systems that have been developed or speculated about today. Such as analysis paradoxically also suggests the irony that a 'deconstructionist' reading of accounts of theses systems might find embedded in them the postivist approach to knowledge that the system designers would seem on the face of it explicitely to have repudiated

- Abstract
- Although the basic structure of the DDC is as it was developed by its creator, Melvil Dewey, its modern form and workable mechanism for continuous revision is the legacy of Benjamin A. Custer. Custer's main contribution lay in resolving a conflict between 2 policies of schedule development that had reached crisis proportions when be became Editor in 1956: retention of numbers; and keeping pace with development of knowledge. Relates the steps taken by Custer, his complete revisions, his success in maintaining the integrity of subject relationships and the internationalization of Deqey leading to its continued success to the present day

- Abstract
- Although a debate about the origins of the DDC has been going on for generations, historical consensus remains elusive. Contributes new information to the historiography on the origins of the Scheme, by (1) grounding an account of Melvil Dewey's thinking as he was crafting the Decimal Classification on an analysis of a larger body of sources than previous classification historians have consulted; and (2) by expanding and deepening historical understanding of the contextual forces influencing his decisions on the classification structure
