I In view of the re-organisation of th.- constituent states, a brief alter­ native schedule of divisions of India is given in chaptl'r 4 of the Schedules. It will take some years for the formation of thr districts to be finalisrd by the nl'W states. Therefort·, th". drtails of th.. old ,ch.-dul.. ar!' r('taim·d. The new brief schedule is given at the end of the old. 2 Chapter 6 of the Sch",dules is new. It p;iw's th" sch"dules for Phase, Intra-Fac .. !, and Intra-Array Rdat;ons Th .. two laller concepts kad to some economy in thl" kngth of certain kinds of class numbers. 3 Th". canonical divisions of" N Fine Arts" bave b .. en revised. Capitals ar.. used !o df'note them in th... pia".. of numerals. The "'ason for this revision has been explained in th" Annals qf library science, 2, 1955, 102-103. 4 The schedules for Managrmf'nt and Labour in " X Economics" have b .. en revised. In rrcent years, a considf'rab!e Iitrratun' has grown on these subjf'cts. Their proliff'ration contiml!'s to bt· incrssant. To me,·t th,.ir pressure, a mOf" v,.rsatile scheme has become nt'<.:essary. A dt'tail,.d draft has heen puhlished in the Annal" ~f libra~v "rima, 3, 195G. 33-64, to elicit 'lJgp;('stions. Th,. brief version of it includ,.d in this volume belongs to a rdatively stabk ),.vel . .5 Some substantial additions have b!'cn made in Ih,. s('hedule. for " Z Law". Th"s" have been sug!':('sted by th" work of dassification in progress in th .. Library of the Ministry of La'-\' of tht· (;ovrrnm!'nt of India. 6 This .. <lilion givl'll a selection fmm the sch,.duks for s"cond kve15 of time and space facet., and comrnon en,.rgy isolates. I'or, books appear needing their us,.. 7 In the light of experiencr, th,. subj('ct fae"t has b,.('n brought over from lhl' s('cond to thl' first I.. "", in the second round of tbe main class Education. 71 A short energy schedule has been added to Nuclear Physics and Nuclear l'.nginrtring. 73 To meet existing literary warrant th!' partially comprehensive main class" NZ Language and Literature" has be,.n formf'd. 8 To avoid the usc of Gr.... k ktters in main class''5 with much literary warrant, '1] ( .. tah) r('presenting Mining has b,.en replan'd by HZ and A (Iamda) representing Animal Husbandry has br('n rrplaced by KZ. This change in notation does not disturb the position of the main class!'s. Another change is the omission of the details in the schedules for "J Agriculture". It has been found from experience that these details are seldom needed in the cJassifi<::ation of books. The omission of these details is a part of the contemplated re-organisation of this and the future editions of the Colon classifica­ tion. It is pIOposed to have two stages for it. 9 COLON CLASSJFICATION: RULES The version at stage I will contain only such isolates as are sufficient for the classification of Macro Thought embodied in books, taken in general libraries such as pubic libraries and libraries of schools, colleges, and universities. To make demonst­ ration of application to specialised monographs possible, all the isolates appearing in the earlier editions, except those of Agriculture, have been retained. The version at stage 2 is intended to give the more elaborate schedules necessary for the Depth Classification of Micro Thought embodied in articles in learned periodicals. Minute or depth classification of such articles is nece,sary to enable the library profession to play its role in the development of research. The profession should do intensive Documentation Service to specialist readers. Documentation service is really exhaustive, expeditious, pinpointed, bibliographical service to specialists, with emphasis on nascent micro thought. Such a service needs as its basis the use of depth classification in international abstracting periodicals, in national documentation lists, and in sQecial bibliographies prepared, from time to time, by research libraries. To fit any scheme for documentation service, continuous work is necessary, both in the theory and in the application of classification. It is not practicable to work out all at once full schedules for all the classes. To keep pace with the dynamic development of the universe of knowledge, the schedules will have to be ever-growing. Nor will the development be equal in inten­ sity in all classes. Therefore version 2 will have to be issued in separate fascicules for different classes. In the work being done since 1951 as rapporteur-general to the Committee on the General Theory of Classification of the International Federation for Documentation, considerable experi­ ence is being gained in the requirements of Depth Classification. But there aff~ still many unsolved problems, both in the idea plane and in the notational plane. The schedules will have to he worked out jointly by expert classificationists and experts in the classes concerned. To give an omnibus single volume, embodying all the details for all classes, will he to scare away, from classification, the major­ ity of librarians working in general libraries. It is proposed to publish the depth schedules as separate fascicules of version 2, 10 PREFACE TO EDITION 6 for the use of librarians specialising as documentalists in parti­ cular classes of knowledge.

  • Strategies for Collecting Electronic Resources on the Qur’Anic Researches
    International Journal on Quranic Research (IJQR) © 2013 Centre of Quranic Research Vol.3, No. 4, June 2013, Pp. 57-78 (CQR), University of Malaya, Malaysia STRATEGIES FOR COLLECTING ELECTRONIC RESOURCES ON THE QUR’ANIC RESEARCHES Amar Arbaoui, Yasser M. Alginahi & Mohamed Menacer ABSTRACT Electronic dissemination of digital information has benefited from recent advancements in Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and dissemination of Islamic digital content in different formats has taken advantage of this rapid progress in technology. Information is available in many formats and on many different applications and devices. However, the online availability of such resources on Qur’an and its sciences is very limited. In this work, digital Qur’an resources available from authentic sources will be used to formulate strategies on how to extract, format, present and make these resources available for researchers in a centralized knowledgebase. The methodology starts with collecting these authentic electronic Islamic resources. Next, resources are classified into their main categories, sub-categories and related categories. Then, the list of metadata for each type of resource is developed. Following this, strategies for efficient dissemination for the different types of digital resources are developed; depending on the format of the files, the metadata is extracted automatically, if possible, otherwise data is entered manually into the knowledgebase. Therefore, the manual entry of data into the knowledgebase for resources having poor or lacking metadata would efficiently help researchers to easily locate the resources they are searching for. Developing these strategies for each type of format could efficiently help in the search process. From the data collected so far, the amount of data gathered shows that books contribute to the highest number of resources available in this area followed by post graduate dissertations, conference papers and journal papers respectively.

  • Universal Decimal Classification and Colon Classification: Their Mutual Impact

The Ranganathan’s dissatisfaction with the library development of CC has been based on the theory classification schemes of the times when he was a expounded in the Prolegomena . student at the University of London. Ranganathan found that the structure of Dewey Decimal Editions of CC Classification was not flexible enough for expansion During the life time of Ranganathan, CC saw six and for accommodating new developments in the editions, a rate of revision matched by no other universe of ideas / subjects. He hit upon the idea of general classification scheme except Dewey Decimal structuring subjects ‘bottom-up ’ within each Basic Classification (DDC).

The major milestones in philosophical and bibliographic classifications are presented to show that the classification system has evolved from purely philosophical schemes, which were focused on the systematization of knowledge, into modern bibliographic classification systems. Facet analysis is considered a contribution to the classification process since it allows the use of an approach that encompasses different points of view of the same subject, as opposed to the enumerative systems. This article also discusses Ranganathan’s five fundamental categories, known as Personality, Matter, Energy, Space and Time, and points out to criticism of this form of categorization in the literature. The Spiral of Scientific Method and the Spiral Model of Development of subjects are presented; the latter is the meta-model of the former.
