WHAT IS REALLY WRONG WITH The UDC?
Abstract
The right people to say what was wrong with the UDC were the users of the UDC. They had invested in it. Now the FID had authorized preparation of the Standard Reference Code, one of the intentions of which was to be the future framework of a more balanced and logically‐constructed ‘UDC’. But would it correct the defects of the present UDC? The purpose of the present paper was to put forward the views of five practising librarians on what were the most serious of those defects, and to try to see whether the SRC was likely to remedy them.
