Abstract

Library classification is constantly being influenced by multifaceted, multidimensional, and infinite growth of literature on one hand and the users needs on the other. Dewey pioneered in devising a scheme of classification for the documentation utility of the organised knowledge. Subsequent schemes of classification worked purely without any theoretical foundation, colon classification being the exception. With the emergence of computer technology the library classification is being metamorphised. This paper attempts to delve a state-of-the-art of library classification in the new computer age.
