Dear Lis-linkers,
I need some professional advice. Soon I am to organise and therefore
classify a large collection of books on islam. I have been through a list
of important topics in islam put together by a muslim and found all but 4
out of 30 topics listed in Dewey 21. However, just as I find DDC21 to be
useful but limited for my own faith so I suspect for islam. Could anyone
who is involved in the classification process of books on islam and also
islamic books who either has knowledge as a scholar or adherent to that
faith profer some advice as to the most adequate classification system for
the task?
I would be very grateful,
Thankyou for your time,
Sincerely,
Keith Lang
