DefinitionDefinitionIn Library &information science, it means: arranging books on the shelves according to their similarity in subject, using classification symbols (called notation ).
This notation is found in a classification scheme or system. Moreover, Classification provides a system for organizing
knowledge. Classification may be used to organize knowledge represented in any form, e.g., books, documents , electronic
resources.
However, small libraries (or children libraries) may do without a classification system and would prefer to use different
colors of books ,or any other local classification systems, to arrange their holdings.
