Estudos recentes têm demonstrado que tais instrumentos não são neutros em relação a valores e aspectos culturais. Tais instrumentos são investigados à luz de uma segunda temática, a paz, e compreende os recentes avanços na concepção do conceito de paz e seus desdobramentos nos campos teórico e prático: a área de Estudos para Paz e o movimento de Cultura de Paz. Tem como objetivo investigar o tratamento dado à temática da paz na CDD. Especificamente, buscou-se verificar e analisar os conceitos de paz, o movimento denominado Cultura de Paz e o campo teórico Estudos para Paz nas 21ª e 22ª edições da Classificação Decimal de Dewey. Estas proposições pretendem responder aos seguintes questionamentos: está a CDD apta para lidar adequadamente com a organização de documentos cujos conteúdos se referem, primeiro, ao conceito de paz, em sua acepção geral; segundo, ao campo de Estudos para Paz; e, terceiro, ao movimento Cultura de Paz? Discute-se, ainda, a relação de influência mútua entre as sociedades e as classificações bibliográficas. Tratar-se de pesquisa teórica e exploratória, devido aos objetivos e à aproximação das temáticas propostos. Os procedimentos metodológicos e técnicos de pesquisa empregados foram o levantamento bibliográfico e a análise documental. A análise dos dados confirmou a hipótese inicial de que a Classificação Decimal de Dewey não está apta a lidar com os temas relativos ao conceito de paz, ao movimento social denominado Cultura de Paz e ao campo de Estudos para Paz. Por fim, considera-se que a Classificação Decimal de Dewey tem contribuído, ainda que de maneira bastante sutil, para a perpetuação de uma Cultura da Guerra. / It is treated of a study concerning the systems of bibliographical classification, specifically the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC), one of the instruments of Knowledge Organization more used in generalists libraries in Brazil and in the world. Recent studies have been demonstrating that such instruments are not neutral in relation to values and cultural aspects. Such instruments are investigated to the light of a second theme, the peace, and it comprises the recent progress in the peace concept and their unfoldings in the theoretical and practical fields: the area of Peace Research and the Culture of Peace movement. It has as objective to verify and to analyze the treatment given to the theme of the peace in DDC. Specifically, it was looked for to verify and to analyze the peace concepts, the movement denominated Culture of Peace and the theoretical field Studies for Paz in the 21st and 22nd editions of the Dewey Decimal Classification. These propositions intend to answer to the following questions: is it DDC capable to work appropriately with the organization of documents whose contents refer, first, to the peace concept, in its general meaning; second, to the Peace Research field; and, third, to Culture of Peace Movement? It is discussed, still, the relationship of mutual influence between the societies and the bibliographical classifications. It's about theoretical and exploratory research, due to the objectives and to the approach of the themes proposed. The methodological and technical procedures of research used were the bibliographical review and the documental analysis. The analysis of the data confirmed the initial hypothesis that the Dewey Decimal Classification is not capable to work with themes relatives to the peace concept, to social movement denominated Culture of Peace and to the Peace Research field. Finally, it is considered that the Dewey Decimal Classification... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

In November 2008 The National library of Sweden announced that they had decided to switch classification system from the Swedish made SAB system to the international Dewey decimal classification system, in their announcements were recommendations for other libraries to also make the transition to Dewey. This decision was based on cataloging work with being able to reuse international material, make Swedish material more visible internationally and work with a system that is constantly maintained. The purpose of this study is to examine how DDC has influenced the public libraries from librarian’s perspectives, and if the transition has affected the organization negatively. It will also study the librarian's experience and thoughts about the transition and DDC as the topic. This study will apply the theory of new institutional theory, or neo-institutional theory, on the way organizations are understood with how they change to be more alike to each other, where the concepts of isomorphism will be used as analytical concepts and themes to understand how the changes can happen. Through semi-structured interviews six librarians got interviewed from five different public libraries, who also had experienced the transition from SAB to Dewey. The findings are that Dewey as a system did not have any severe or bad consequences to the public libraries who implemented it, but that it still has aspects to it that works poorly which proves that Dewey still needs to get more adapted to public libraries in Sweden.

Aus der Truppe der Beiträger, die überwiegend dezimalklassifikatorische Beiträge lieferten, gab Magda Heiner-Freiling, Die Deutsche Bibliothek, Frankfurt, einen Sachstandsbericht zum Projekt „DDC Deutsch“ und eine Vorausschau auf die zu erwartenden Dienstleistungen. Festzuhalten ist an dieser Stelle nur soviel, daß die Sachgruppen der Deutschen Nationalbibliografie seit Jahrgang 2004 auf DDC umgestellt sind; damit wurde unsere laufende Nationalbibliografie von einer hausgemachten Systematik in eine international gebräuchliche Klassifikation überführt. Dies entsprach auch der Empfehlung, die im Jahre 1998 von einer Expertenkommission des damaligen Deutschen Bibliotheksinstituts gegeben wurde, die überwiegend mit Mitgliedern der Gesellschaft für Klassifikation besetzt war.

Hans-Ulrich Seifert von der UB Trier stellte mit dem von der DFG geförderten Projekt Krünitz ein in jeder Hinsicht außergewöhnliches Digitalisierungsvorhaben vor. Es geht um die 140.000 Druckseiten der in 242 Bänden vorliegenden Oekonomisch-Technologischen Encyklopädie von Johann Georg Krünitz, die zwischen 1773 und 1858 entstand. Die Digitalisierung der 140.000 Druckseiten ist inzwischen erfolgt; als problematisch erwies sich gleichwohl, daß allein der lange Erscheinungszeitraum das seinige dazu tat, daß inhaltlich zusammengehörige Sachverhalte an vielerlei Alphabetstellen auftauchen. Hier setzen die Trierer Fachleute die DDC zur Klassifizierung aller Lemmata und Bilder ein und erreichen eine sachliche Gliederung und eine Gesamtschau, die in der Papierausgabe nicht zu erreichen war. Ein Beispiel: Das Suchwort Bier ergab 2.558 Treffer. Mehr hierzu unter www.kruenitz.uni-trier.de

The following thesis aims to account for and describe the variations of perceptions that public librarians have regarding user-friendliness of the classification systems that are used in Swedish public libraries. How user-friendliness and the classification systems are perceived are examined to understand how the librarians might connect these two together.  The thesis is based on the qualitive research methodology of phenomenography which is a method used in order to create an understanding of the variations of perceptions of a phenomenon. The phenomenographic method is applied by using qualitative interviews. For this study eight public librarians in the Stockholm region have been interviewed. The interviews were conducted in a phenomenographic manner and were set out to be a dialogue between the interviewer and the interviewee. All the libraries in the study are currently working in the SAB classification system. The study shows that there are a variation of different perceptions of user-friendliness and the classification systems. One perception that is found is that SAB is not user-friendly because of the lack of logic within the system and it is a common impression that users find the system confusing. A perception also states that SAB is “a dead system”, referring to the fact that SAB no longer is updated. The perception means that in time, SAB will not be a useable system. Another perception contradicts the first one and says that SAB is a system that users usually understand to a certain degree. The users have the capability to operate within the system to find literature they seek but as they submerge deeper into the systems hierarchy most users usually get confused. Another perception is that the connection between user-friendliness and classification systems is not of importance. This perception proclaims that user-friendliness can be achieved by working with signage and shelf placement instead. The study also shows that there is a gap between how the librarians perceive the classification systems and how they imagine their users perceiving them. This is shown in the lack of dialogue between users and librarians. A common perception among the librarians is that they have what they call a “home blindness” concerning the classification systems. This statement is made referring to the fact that librarians work within these systems day by day and easily forgets to reflect on the difficulties that a first-time user might face as they try to understand the systems.

Orientador: Walter Moreira / Resumo: A divisão referente à música (780) da CDD foi completamente revisada em sua 20ª edição, recebendo elogios e críticas por diversos bibliotecários; porém, profissionais da área de música como professores e estudantes apreciaram as modificações. Uma característica interessante dessa revisão foram as categorias elaboradas a partir das divisões para melhor compreensão de conceitos principais da área, sendo divididas em quatro principais: 780 para subdivisões padrão, 781 para princípios, 782 a 788 para mídias de performance e 789 para compositores individuais. Considerando as mudanças realizadas em música, enfatiza-se a importância da compreensão do conhecimento representado na divisão da CDD e a partir das modificações apresentadas, questionam-se quais conceitos se consolidaram na estrutura em música. O problema que se destaca e que orienta a presente pesquisa, portanto, é: quais as mudanças realizadas na divisão de música da CDD a partir da 20ª edição e quais os reflexos dessas alterações? Essa pesquisa define como objetivo geral: identificar as mudanças que a divisão de música (780) apresentou nas revisões da 19ª, 20ª e 23ª edição. E para tal, foram estabelecidos os seguintes objetivos: a. revisar conceitos considerados fundamentais para a realização do trabalho; b. investigar estudos que realizaram análise através da Ontogenia em sistemas de classificação para posteriormente aplicá-la como método nessa pesquisa; c. analisar as subdivisões padrão da divisão de música (780) nas e...

An interesting feature of this review was the categories elaborated from the divisions to better understand the main concepts of the area, being divided into four main ones: 780 for standard subdivisions, 781 for principles, 782 to 788 for performance media and 789 for individual composers. Considering the changes made in music, the importance of understanding the knowledge represented in the division of the DDC is emphasized and, based on the modifications presented, it is questioned which concepts were consolidated in the structure in music. The problem that stands out and which guides this research, therefore, is: what changes have been made in the DDC music division since the 20th edition and what are the consequences of these changes? This research defines as a general objective: to identify the changes that the music division (780) presented in the revisions of the 19th, 20th and 23rd edition. To this end, the following objectives were established: a. review concepts considered fundamental for carrying out the work; b. investigate studies that performed analysis through Ontogeny in classification systems to later apply it as a method in this research; c. analyze the standard subdivisions of the music division (780) in the 19th, 20th and 23rd editions of the D...
