The two most prominent sections cover Colon Classification and the Universal Decimal System (UDC). Colon Classification is used to “introduce the techniques of practical classification and to demonstrate some of the principles of classification.” The authors provide a good introduction to the scheme by summarizing the structure of the 6th edition as well as the classification schedules, which is a good primer on Ranganathan’s system. Section 4 explores the UDC, of which the authors expect the readers to have a copy of the 3rd abridged edition (for the course). Although the section provides a good summary and introduction to UDC’s scheme, it is difficult to follow the frames without the required text. For anyone looking to learn about these two specific systems, these sections do a good job of introducing the theory, the basic characteristics of the scheme, and how to create appropriate numbers.
As a whole, this introductory text still remains relevant nearly thirty years later. Although some of the ideas of computer automation are outdated, the theory and practice of subject indexing is still applicable, and the interactive instructions make it easy for readers of any level to keep up with the material.
