DDC classification
CLASSIFICATION OF LANGUAGE, BIOGRAPHY, SERIAL PUBLICATION. According to Dr.Ranganathan library classification is the translation of name of the subject of book into preferred artificial language of ordinal number, which represents some, featured of book other than their thought content. There are many types of classification like colon classification (cc), library of congress classification (LCC), universal decimal classification (UDC), Dewy Decimal Classification (DDC).classification is classify knowledge as well as information. Classification helps to coding, organized and maintaining the library material. Dewy Decimal Classification (DDC) is widely used classification in world. The system was conceived by Melvil Dewey in 1873 and first published in 1876. Published by OCLC. Arabic numbers used in DDC .This cover present and future topic. Classify material more efficiently. This classifies content of material not physical format. It has four volumes.1st volume for tables that content table 1 to table .2nd volume for 000 to 599 and 3rd volume 600 to 999 and 4th is index. BIOGRAPHY Biography is Greek word Bio=life and Graphic=writing. Biography is of two type individual and collective biography. Biography is Memory, history of some ones life written by someone else or written by him that is autobiography. Shows how person affected the people life through their behavior. In DDC for biography class number is 920. And subdivision is there. In biography we use table 1 for collected or individual biography etc. and table 2 to table 6 according to instruction.
BIBLIOGRAPHICAL WORK COLLECTIVE 2 1. INDIVIDUAL BIOGRAPHY Individual biography includes single person biography. About their life, lessons, how he affect the people life. The subject which is related to him. Rule: - we take subject first and then 092 from table for individual biography. e.g.:-A life of J.R.D.Tata = 338.0092
The book is individual biography of J.R.D.Tata and the subject is business so number of business from volume 2 is 338. So in that we add .092 from table 1 because table is applicable is for everything. 2. COLLECTIVE BIOGRAPHY Collective biography includes collection of biography more than one person. Sometime it may be from same subject, area, gender, time or may be from different time, gender, area, subject or combinations of these. A) Work limited subject in which all group of people / all personalities contributed. Rule: - if work is limited on only one subject but two or more people include in this then first subject number and for collective biography 0922 from table 1 . E.g.:- Great teachers=371.100922 The book is about teacher. Education is subject. Because subject is same so thats why main entry under subject class number that is education in that 371.1 for teachers. Standard subdivision is 1008-1009 thats why 0092 we used for collective biography from table 1. work limited to time not limited to area or subject Rule: - if work is limited to time not limited to area and subject then entry under main class biography that is 920 and add era number. E.g.:-Great personalities of the 19th century= 920.009034 This book is including all persons from different country and different. Entry under biography. 00901-00905 is for historical period .so base number 920.0090 un that add the number following 090 in notation 0901-0905 from table 1 i.e. for 19th century 09034 . But following number 090 means exclude the 090 thats why we take only 34.
B) work limited to specific area (geography) Rule: - if work limited to specific area then entry under biography class and if subject is given then make entry under subject. Then add area class number from table 2 as per the instruction. E.g. .i) Musician of India=780.92254 The Book is about Indian musician. 780 for music then from table 1 (.0922) for collective biography. Now see the standard subdivision of subject that is .1-.9 so zero will be cancel.Astric mark was there thats why we saw the summary .in summary they mention add subject base number from notation 3-9 from table 2,from table 2 we got the India number i.e.54 . ii) 6 great English men=920.042 This is biography about six English men. English men means they belong to country England. Here subject is not mentioned thats why entry under 920.0. Now as per instruction notation 3-9from table 2 for country number. 42 England code. D) Work limited to gender Rule: - if work is limited to gender then for women the 920.72 and for men it is 920.71 E.g. i) Great women of modern India = 920.72 ii) Hand in hand =920.71 Hand in hand is about the ten black men who change America. These both entries under biography class number, in that in subdivision of biography this number is mentioned for women and men. Work not limited to area, subject, time, gender.
Rule: - if work is not limited to anything then make entry under general collection of biography that is 920.02. E.g. Hall of fame=920.02 Contain seven men and one woman short stories about their lives from different places and different time. So main entry under biography and in that .02 for general collection of biography. LANGUAGES Material is in different languages so classified into perfect language we need some classification.
