You have to use the Tables very frequently along with the Schedules for building a Class Number. After reading this Unit, you will be able to: © understand the nature and utility of the seven (auxiliary) tables; © apply these tables for synthesis or the:number-building proce © understand the main classes and their divisions and sub-divisions represented in the schedules; 7 © apply the instructions and guidelines provided at various points in the schedules; and © build class numbers for titles falling under various branches of main classes using notation from tables and schedules. 5.1. INTRODUCTION You have been already introduced to the structure, festures and characteristics of DDC (19th Edition) in Block 1, Units 1-4. This Unit familiarises you with the Seven Auxiliary Tables, Dewey Decimal Classification (19th Eaton) Part 2 viz, Tl Standard Subdivisions, T2 Areas, T3 Subdivisions of Individual Literatures, T4 Subdivisions of Individual Languages, TS Racial, Ethnic, National Groups, T6 Languages and ‘TT Persons. This Unit also brings to your attention important aspects and summary of schedules representing important divisions of the universe of subjects (000-999) and their use in synthesis or the number-building process. 5.2 TABLES ‘A table has been defined as “a sequence of dependant notation indicating various special concepts used repeatedly with a variety of subjects and disciplines”. There are seven auxiliary tables listed in this section, which support the schedules.. The use of these seven tables in the number building process is presented in the following subsections with suitable worked out examples. 5.2.1 Table 1: Standard Subdivisions ‘Table 1 is very frequently used in DDC. ‘The dash or fiyphen (-) preceding each number never stands alone. ‘The hyphen (-) is omitted when you add a specific number from Table I to the base number from the Schedules, _ Examples Title: Study and teaching of library Class Number: 025.4207 “Analysis: 020 = Library and Information Science 025.42 -07 (Table 1) Library classification Study and teaching Synthesis: 025.42 + -07 025.420 7 Title: Formula in physics Class Number: 530.212 ‘Analysis: 530 Physics -0212 (Table 1) Formulas u Synthesis: 930 + -0212 53 + -0212 530.212 Title: * Market research in silk textiles Class Number: 677.390 688 Silk textiles -0688 (Table 1) Market research Synthesis: 677.39 + -0688 677.390 688 Self Check Exercise 1) Assign class numbers to the following titles: 8) Scientific principles in chemistry b) Serial publications in astronomy ©) Con spondence courses in public administration 4) International organisations in trade ©) History of philosophy Note: i) Write your answers in the space given’ below. ii)’Check your answers with the answers given at the end of this Unit, 5.2.2 Table 2: Areas ‘Table 2 is also one of the important and frequently used tables in DDC for synthesising a class ‘number. Table 2 includes areas, regions, places in general (-1), which include physiographical features, population clusters, political and economic groups. It also includes persons in general (2), ancient world (-3) and modetn world (-4 and -9). In DDC 18th Edition (1971), “Divide like” instruction was replaced by “Add to” from Schedules spans and “Add from” Tables. You will find in DDC-19th Edition “Add to” instruction at several places in the Tables and Schedules for the use of area subdivisions from Table 2 to the base-number. Take for example 327.3 -.9 = Foreign policies and foreign relations between specific nations ‘Add “Areas” notation 3-9 from Table 2 to base number 327, ¢.g., Foreign Policy of United Kingdom 327.41 (Table 2). Examples Tith Class Number: 294.390 952 “Analys Buddhist religious sects and reform movements in Japan 294,39 Buddhist sects and reform movements -09 (Table 1) = Historical and geographical treatment -52 (Table 2) = Japan Synthesis: 294.39 +-09 + - 52 , = 294390 952 Title: Elementary education in India Class Number: 372.954 “Analysis 372 Elementary education 37291 - 99 Geographical treatment (Add “Areas” notation 1-9 from Table 2 to base number 372.9) 54 (Table 2) = India Synthesis: 3729 + - 54 372.954 Study of Tables and Schedules Dovey Decimal Classification (19th Battin)» Part 2 Title: Geography of the USA Class Number: 917.3 Analysis: 910 General Geography -73.

The notation from Table 3 is never used alone but may be used as required with the base number for individual literature identified by * under 810 890 (schedules). Tables 3 is followed and supplemented by Table 3-A which provides additional elements for building numbers with Table 3 Examples Title: Idealism in English poetry Class Number: 821.13 “Analysis: 820 English literature -1 (Table 3) Poetry 13 (Table 3-4) = Idealism Synthesis: 8204-1413 824-1413 Title: German short stories Class Number: 833.01 Analysis: 830 = German literature -301 (Table 3) =" Short stories Synthesis: 830 + -301 83 +301 Title: Critical appraisal of Telugu poetry Class Number: _ 894.827 109 ‘Analysis 894.827 = Telugu literature -1 (Table 3) = - Poetry = 09 (Table 3) = Critical appraisal Synthesis: 894.827 + - 1 + - 09 = 894.827 109 5.2.4 Table 4: Subdivisions of Individual Languages ‘Table 4 Subdivisions of Individual Languages is never used alone, but may be used as required with the base numbers for individual languages identified by * asterisk under 420 - 490 in the schedule, Examples Tile: French grammar Class Number: 445 “Analysis: 440 = French language “5 (Table 4) = Grammar ‘Synthesis: 440 + -5 445 = Ms Title: English words in Hindi Class Number: 491.432 421 “Analysi 491.43 = Hindi language -24 (Table 4) = Foreign elements (Add “Languages” notation 1-9 from Table 6 to -24) -21 (Table 6) = English ‘Synthesis: 49143 +- 244-21 = 491.432 421 ‘Study of Tables and Schedules Dewey Decimal Classification (€9th Baition) - Part 2 Title: German-French dictionary Class Number: 433.31 ‘Analyst 430 German language -3 (Table 4) Dictionary -31 (Table 6) French language Synthesis: 430+-3 4-31 43 4-34-31 = 43331 5.2.5 Table 6: Languages Table 6 Languages never used alone, but may be used with those numbers from the schedules tnd other tables to which the classifier is instructed to add notation from Table 6.
