[Sigia-l] About bloody time?

[Ziya Oz]

But the new library in this growing Phoenix suburb has gone a step further.
It is one of the first in the nation to have abandoned the Dewey Decimal
System of classifying books, in favor of an approach similar to that at
Barnes & Noble, say, where books are shelved in ³neighborhoods² based on
subject matter.

Does he think his approach could signal the death of Dewey in libraries
across the nation?

³I think it could be,² Mr. Courtright said. ³And it probably should be.²
