Good morning everyone
We, at the University of Sheffield Library, have been asked to begin classifying
our stock to (no more than) 6 decimal places, using Dewey 22 (we have
previously had a limit of 10 decimal places).
To give us an idea of how this would work in practice, we would like to hear
from cataloguers/metadata specialists in other University Libraries who already
do this. How has it affected your working practices? Are there any problems
we would need to look out for? Anything else you think we need to know?
Thank you all in anticipation.
Regards, Barbara
