INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the p 2ges in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy. Requests can be made to our Dissertations Customer Services Department. 5. Some pages in any document may have indistinct print. In all cases we have filmed the best available copy.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Inspiration for the study leading to this report resulted from some questions raised during seminar discussions conducted by Professor Willard C. Frank and Carl Boyd in their History of Strategy and Policy program at Old Dominion University. Both Dr. Frank and Dr. Boyd imbued the writer with a desire to perform research in the fields of military strategy and policy and in military and naval history. I thank them for planting the seed. Special thanks are due Dr. Boyd for use of materials from his extensive private library of military and naval history. The writer owes a debt of gratitude to a number of people in Washington, D.C.; Carlisle, Pennsylvania; Newport, Rhode Island; Montgomery, Albama; Norfolk, Virginia; and Hampton, Virginia for their encouragement and support. Chief among these are: Lieutenant General R. G. Gard, Jr., President of the National Defense University,

    The Foundations of Naval Science: Alfred Thayer Mahan’s The Influence of Sea Power on History and the Library of Congress Classification System Ellen E. Adams Alice T. Miner Museum Joshua F. Beatty State University of New York at Plattsburgh ABSTRACT This article is a history of the creation of the Naval Science class within the Library of Congress Classification System (LCCS) during that system’s fashioning and development at the turn of the twentieth century. Previous work on the history of classification and especially of the LCCS has looked closely at the mechanics of the creation of such systems and at ideological influences on classification schemes. Prior scholarship has neglected the means by which ideologies are encoded into classification systems, however. The present article examines the history of a single class by looking at the ideological and political assumptions behind that class and the means by which these assumptions were written into the LCCS. Specifically, we argue that the Naval Science class resulted from a concerted effort by naval theorists to raise their field to the status of a science, the interest of Washington’s political class in this new science as a justification for imperial expansion, and a publishing boom in naval matters as the American public became eager consumers of such work during the Spanish-American War. This complex narrative thus illustrates the manifold influences on the creation of any classification system and asks us to consider that multiplicity of influences, whether we as librarians teach about existing systems or work to build new ones. Keywords: Alfred Thayer Mahan · classification · critical librarianship · imperialism · Library of Congress · Library of Congress Classification System · naval science RÉSUMÉ Cet article relate l’histoire de l’ajout de la catégorie Sciences navales au système de classification de la Bibliothèque du Congress (B.C.) durant son élaboration et son essor au tournant du vingtième siècle.

The United States Army agrees, and has hand-picked him for enrollment in the prestigious National War College (NWC), the highest level of professional military education for officers. The NWC is a component of the National Defense University located in Washington, D.C., that provides graduate-level instruction to senior military officers and civilians to prepare them for senior leadership assignments and responsibilities. The National War College educates future leaders of the Armed Forces, Department of State, and other civilian agencies for high-level policy, command and staff responsibilities by conducting a senior-level course of study in national security strategy. Approximately 800 students are enrolled at one time: half in a two-year distance learning program, the other half in a 10-month, on-campus, full-time resident program. Starting this summer, John is going to be participating in the full-time resident program. Very few students are selected from the Army Reserves for the resident program, which makes this honor even more compelling. Upon completion in May 2018, John will receive a Master’s Degree in National Security Strategy. John’s Background John has always placed a premium on the concept of service; service to his community and to his country.
