  3. About Dewey • The Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) was developed by Melvil Dewey, a college librarian, in 1871 after he became frustrated with the impractical system he was using previously. • The DDC categorizes titles by subjects, using a system of Arabic numbers and systems. • Each DDC number is represented by three numbers. For further classification, a decimal and more numbers may follow. • The DDC call number is located on the book’s spine. • The DDC is used in most libraries today. O
