Reclassification in the 1990s

Abstract

During the 1960s the academic and large public libraries engaged in massive reclassification of their collections from Dewey Decimal to the Library of Congress Classification System. A search of the library literature of this decade indicates much publication activity on the topic of reclassification. While losing some momentum in the “trend to LC” during 1968‐1971 many libraries continued to reclassify into the 1970s.
