The document discusses phase relations in colon classification, a library classification scheme developed by S.R. Ranganathan, outlining its introduction, types, and examples. It categorizes phase relations into inter-subject, intra-facet, and intra-array relations and recognizes six kinds of relations in the context of complex subjects. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of understanding phase relations for effective classification and arrangement of library materials.

3. INTRODUCTION
Colon classification is a scheme of library
classification developed by S.R. Ranganathan.
It was the first ever facet classification, The
first edition was published in 1933, Since then
six more edition have been published, it is
specially used in library in India.

4. PHASE RELATION
Phase relation is a method of subject is the
area of the world, this method is also the
process of loose assemblage, based on the
three types of process of loose assembling
three level can be phase relation. These
relationship are mutual “0”(Zero) and small
letter roman are used as a combination to
add.

5. PHASE RELATION IN CC SCHEME
In colon classification , phase relation have been
explicitly identified and categorized into type and
kind, it has provided specific rules for classifying
complex subject. Just as facet analysis has a logical
and helpful framework for classifying multifaceted
subject phase analysis, his provided a smaller frame
work to deal with inter disciplinary subject.
These device have been used on theoretical
foundations to obtain a helpful and practical
arrangement of documents on library shelves and to
entries in catalogues and bibliographies tuned to use
requirements.

6. TYPES OF RELATION
There are three type of phase relation .
Inter subject face relation .
Intra- facet phase relation.
Intra- array phase relation.

7. Intra subject phase relation
In this mode two or more subject simple or
compound are studied in their mutual relation.
such a relation is called intra subject phase
relation and it gives rise to a complex subject.

8. Intra-facet phase relation
In this mode two or more isolate from one and
the same schedule are brought into mutual
relation such a relation is called the intra facet
phase relation .
it help connecting facet within basic subjects .

9. Intra array phase relation
Here two or more isolate are taken from one
and same array or order higher than such a
relation is called the intra array phase relation
and give rise to complex isolate.

10. KIND OF RELATION
At the instance in the 6th edition (1963) of the cc ,
Ranganathan recognized five kind of relation or interaction
between the involved phase. In the 7th edition (1987) one
more of relation tool phase has been rather reintroduced to
make them six namely are these.
• General
• Bias
• Comparison
• Difference
• Influence
• tool

12. General relation
intra subject phase relation.
Example-
General political science and economics.
W0aX
intra facet phase relation.
Buddhism and Jainism. = Q30j4
intra array phase relation .
collage and university library. = 2330t4

13. Bias relation
• intra subject phase relation.
Example- economic for politicians.
=X0bW
intra facet phase relation.
Hinduism biased Buddhism. = Q20k4
• intra array phase relation .
rural sociology for urban. = Y310u3

14. Comparison relation
Example- political and economics compared.
=W0cX
intra facet phase relation.
Christian and Hinduism compared. Q60m2
• intra array phase relation .
psychology man woman = S,550v6

15. Difference of relation
• Intra subject phase relation.
Difference between politics and economics.
=W0dX
• Intra facet phase relation .
• Difference between library administration
• and technical treatment.
• =2:50n8
Intra array phase relation.
University and research libraries differentiated.
=2340w6

16. Influence of relation
• Intra subject phase relation.
Influence of economics on politics.
=W0gX
• Intra facet phase relation .
Influence of Hindi poetry on Hindi drama.
=O152,2or1
Intra array phase relation.
Influence for classification on cataloguing.
=2:550y1

17. CONCLUSION
• We have discussed the following points .
• Inter disciplinary subject which displaying relation
between 2 subject are know as complex subject. They
are to be distinguished classificatory work for the
purpose of helpful arrangement.
• These complex subject display phase relation the first
subject is the primary phase and the second one is
secondary.
• They display phase relation 2 subject (inter subject)
Two isolate of the same facet (inter-facet) or two
isolate of the same array (inter array of the facet).
