Abstract

Traces the development of the widely used library classification scheme: the DDC; over the 25 year period, 1965-1990. Explains that the marked philosophical differences between editions 17 and 20 result from the differing philosophies of their respective editors with regard to the means and extent by which assistance is provided for classifiers
