Dewey Classification Scheme:

Books in the library are organised using a scheme known as The Dewey Decimal Classification System, which is the most widely used method for classifying books in the library. This system is a general knowledge organization tool that is continuously revised to keep pace with knowledge. It is named after Melvil Dewey, an American Librarian who developed it in 1876.
