This book covers the skills necessary for a classifier using the Library of Congress Classification scheme (LCC), whether at a professional or a paraprofessional level. It is equally suitable for use by library students in colleges or universities, and others who are studying classification by themselves, either with a specific goal or as part of their continuing professional development. This workbook will also be useful as a cataloger's reference tool. The chapters build off one another, and will be most useful when worked through in sequence. Throughout the book there are exercises to practice and test your skills. There are answers for self-checking at the back of the book
