5.  The term ‘Classification’ is a derived from the
Latin word “Classis” which means ‘Grouping’
Classification is the arrangement of things in logical
order according to their degree of likeness,especially
the assignment of books to their proper places in a
scheme of book classification.

item on the shelves immediately.
It brings related items thgether in a
helful sequence from general to
specific.
Correct placement of of documents
on shelves after retrieval.

8. => An enumerative classification
provides an alphabetical list of
subject headings,assigns ready made
class numbers to each heading in
alphabetical order. DDC is the real
example.

9. => A faceted classification system
where it breaks down each subject inti its
concept and then combines the relevent
units and concept to describes the subject
matter of the information package in
hand.Colon classification is the real
example of faceted classification.

10. Most of the eastern material classified according
to DDC scheme.
Melvil Dewey developed this system.before
deway there was no proper classification system
except fixed locationsystem.Books was arranged
according to theor size,colour,ignoring their
mutual subject relationship.

11.  Dewey studied different classification
system of the time but was unsatisfied
therefore,he thought to developed his own
classification system keeping in view the
requirements of his country,its literature
and religion etc.

12. Melvil dewey was influenced by Beconian and Harris
classification system.
The Structure of Dewey Decimal Classification
schemes is based on schedule and summaries.
The entire world of knowledge is divided into ten
main classes. Each main class is further divided into
ten divisions, and each division into ten sections (not
all the numbers for the divisions and sections have
been used).

13. First summary: Ten main classes
Second summary: Hundred divisions
Third summary: Thousand sections
Volume 1 : Tables and manual.
Volume 2 : summaries & Schedules (000-500).
Volume 3 : Schedules (600-900).
Volume 4 : Relative Index.

14.  Colon classification (CC) is a system
of library classification developed by S. R.
Ranganathan. It was the first
ever faceted (or analytico-
synthetic) classification. The first edition was
published in 1933. Since then six more
editions have been published. It is especially
used in libraries in India.

15.  Classified the eastern material and others in following
classes.
 The colon classification uses 42 main classes that are
combined with other letters, numbers and marks in a
manner resembling the Library of Congress Classificationto

16.  Riazuddin compiled an extension plan in the DDC
for Islam within original notation designated by
Dewey (i.e., 297).Because this was only an
extension to one number, its scope is very
limited and problems like lengthy notations and
congestion are present in these extensions.
Gondal devised a classification scheme for Islam,
which used by the libraries of the Mosques
Department of Punjab University’s Quran
Academy (Lahore, Pakistan), and partially in the
Punjab University Central Library.Eraqi worked
on an expansion of DDC eighteenth edition’s
class for Islam (i.e., 297). The Tehran Book
Processing Centre also devised an expansion in
DDC.

sciences at university of sargodha.
A New, Independent, and Comprehensive
System for Islam.
 . Islamic knowledge is one area that has not
been properly addressed by all cassification
systems. Hence the libraries that have
developed extensive collections on Islam
face the problem of organizing their
collections while using these systems.

19.  Dr,Haroon idress examines this problem and
presents a potential solution.
 To suggest the optimal solution of the
problem.

Comprehensive System for Islam’

20. Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC), Charles Ammi
Cutter’s Expansive Classification (EC), James Duff
Brown’s Subject Classification (SC), U.S. Library of
Congress Classification (LCC), Universal Decimal
Classification (UDC), Henry E. Bliss’s Bibliographic
Classification (BC), and S. R. Ranganathan’s Colon
Classification (CC) are internationally known
standard classification systems. However, DDC,
LCC and UDC are more widely used around the
globe. These systems have served their purpose
adequately in most disciplines and areas of
knowledge. Nevertheless, some grey areas lack
proper place and enumeration in these “fit-for-all”
standard classification systems.
