Melvil DeweyThe Dewey Decimal Classification System (DDC) categorizes nonfiction books into ten main divisions (see below). These classes are then divided into ten subdivisions. The use of decimals allows for additional categories. A book is assigned a Dewey number based on its subject. The Dewey number and the first three letters of the author's last name become the book's call number. Nonfiction books are arranged numerically on the shelves according to DDC:)

Dewey Numbers 000 Generalities 100 Philosophy and Psychology  200 Religion  300 Social Science  400 Language  500 Natural Science and Mathematics  600 Technology (Applied Sciences)  700 Arts  800 Literature  900 Geography and History
