DDC summaries

Lorcan

We made the Dewey Decimal Classification system summaries available for open use a while ago on the ResearchWorks website (the top three levels). I am not sure how widely noticed this was.

The Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) system uses simple decimal notation to divide recorded knowledge into 10 main classes, 100 divisions and 1,000 sections. [OCLC ResearchWorks – About DDC and the Summaries]

What has been noticed in a couple of places are the DDC RSS feeds.

The technology career ladder

Library leaders should be drawn from across the organization. Any idea that technology leaders are overly specialised or too distant from general library work is outmoded and counter-productive.
