16. The Dewey Decimal System is a tool used to sort books into groups or categories

17. This system was invented by a man named Melvil Dewey. He was a librarian who lived long ago.

18. Here are the 10 general groups for sorting books in the Dewey Decimal System: General WorksPhilosophy ReligionSocial Studies LanguageScience TechnologyArts and Leisure LiteratureHistory/Geography

19. 000s-General Works Books that fit in this group have many different subjects in them. Like: Encyclopedias or The Guinness Book of Records This is also where books on unexplained subjects would be found- like The Loch Ness Monster.

20. 100s-Philosophy Books that fit in this group tell about how we think and feel.

21. 200s-Religion Books in this group tell about different religions or stories from the bible.

22. 300s-Social Studies Books in this group tell about how people live together. holidays and customs government, military

23. Fairy tales and folk tales are also placed in the 300s. Many were written to teach a lesson about behavior and.. that’s social studies—people living together.

24. 400s-Language Books in this group are about different languages or grammar. noun verb adjective

54. Books should be standing straight on the shelves and come right to the edge of the shelf so that the titles may be easily read. Also, allowing books to lean is very damaging to the bindings. WRONG CORRECT

55. Do not try to remove too many books from a shelf at one time.

56. Do not pull books from the shelf using the head cap. This can easily damage the binding.

57. Instead, push back the books on either side of the book you want, then remove your book. Place a blank index card in the place where the book was. By doing this, you can return the book to its exact spot if you don’t want it anymore, and the next person will be able to find it.

58. Do not overreach to retrieve a book from a high shelf. Ask for help.
