church library
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
This book has been a great help as I am trying to set up/update our church library. The book has subcategories I have been unable to find anywhere else. It includes non-religious numbers also; has been immensely helpful and price of $12.44 including S & H was more than reasonable.
from Ima Church Librarian!

I actually revamped and re-catalogued a church library using primarily this book. Our library has approximately 600-700 titles, so it could have been impossible without the little paperback book I grew to rely on. I knew nothing about the process of getting a book into circulation until I found this book, which was recommended by another church librarian.
Essential!

This is the book I use almost entirely to determine Dewey numbers. It is clear, simple, and easy to use. If I happened to lose or misplace my copy, I would not hesitate to order another immediately. I do find it essential. I have a copy of Sears List of Subject Headings, but I rarely use it because I much prefer this little book.
Great resource

This book is very helpful in beginning a church library and learning the very basic Dewey Decimal system. It is a reasonable price compared and yet a good resource compared to the very expensive books available.
An Excellent Church Media Center Resource
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Most churches maintain some type of media center or church library in which to catalog their materials. Many cannot afford to purchase one of the computerized media classification systems available. "A Classification System for Church Libraries" is compiled for use with church related material. It is a great refrence manual for the church librarian. This book is easy to use. It has a great relative index based upon the Dewey Decimal System which makes classification of all types of media simple. Even volunteer media helpers can, with very little training, log in and catalog various types of media using this book as a guide. "A Classification System..." makes a great desk reference. I would be lost without my well used copy. Donate one to your church library.
