Library of Congress Classification Outline
List of Dewey Decimal classes

Question: Does this system use Dewey decimal cataloging system?

Answer: The Dewey Decimal System (DDC) is a method for organizing books and other materials by subject using numerical classification. We do not have the Dewey values for the books that the librarian plans to add. The Handy Library Manager includes a data field labeled "DEWEY". The librarian can either enter the value manually or generate it automatically if the book's information is sourced from a web search engine. For example, the Handy Library Manager can import data from the Library of Congress, which provides DDC values for its materials.

Question: I want to catalog a book using DDC? Can I have a diagram on how to go about it?

Answer: We do not provide DDC (Dewey Decimal Classification) data. When entering books manually, you can use the web search feature to find the DDC for the book you are entering. Alternatively, you can use our auto-cataloging option by ISBN and select the Library of Congress search. The web search will display results from the Library of Congress, which include the DDC values. You can review these results and automatically transfer the DDC information to your library catalog using the Handy Library Manager.
