Broughton, Vanda. Essential Classification. Second Edition. Neal-Schuman, 2015. ISBN: 978-0-8389-1369-7


Description
Fully updated to reflect changes to the major general schemes (Library of Congress, LCSH, Dewey and UDC), this new edition offers guidance on how to go about classifying a document from scratch. Cataloging authority Broughton leads the novice classifier step by step through the basics of subject cataloging, with an emphasis on practical document analysis and classification.  Her book deals with fundamental questions of the purpose of classification in different situations, and the needs and expectations of end users.
