What is the Dewey Decimal
Classification System?
 It organizes books and other
materials in libraries so that
people can find them easily on the
shelves.
 It is arranged using numbers to
represent all of the subjects in
the world . . . and beyond.
Melvil Dewey
(1851-1931)
 The Dewey Decimal
Classification System was
Melvil Dewey’s BIG idea.
 He divided all of the
knowledge in the world
into ten main classes and
left room for things he
didn’t even know about
yet, like computers.

Dewey is everywhere!
 When you go to other
libraries, you can find
non-fiction books using
the same system.
 Books are grouped
together by subject, so
when you go to the section
on animals (599) you can
browse the shelf and see
books about many animals.

The Online Catalog

 The computers in your library have a
catalog program that helps you find the
books you want to read.
• When you type in a search term, the
catalog gives you a list of books with
that subject and the Dewey number
telling you where to find it on the
shelf.
• This number is the address of the
book. It is called a “Call Number.”
