Decimal Classification

Decimal Classification is a system used by libraries to organize books and resources numerically based on their subjects. It assigns each topic a specific number, often using digits after a decimal point for more detailed categories. For example, books on science might have different numbers than those on history, making it easy to find related items grouped together. This system helps both librarians and users locate information efficiently, ensuring that materials on similar topics are stored and retrieved systematically. Overall, it creates a logical, organized structure for managing a wide range of knowledge.
