Portraits in Cataloging and Classification
Co-published simultaneously as Cataloging and Classification Quarterly, v.25, nos.2/3 and 4, 1998. With a President who has stated that the Internet represents the way to learn in the next century, what is the future of librarians and the library sciences? This volume, an amalgam of biography, autobiography, and history, answers that question by looking to the past and examining the lives and achievements of pioneers in cataloguing and research.

Decimal Classification System
The Dewey Decimal Classification System, popularly known as DC or DDC, was created by Melvil Dewey more than a century ago. Since then it has gone through constant changes and has grown from a 44 page booklet to four volumes. But its basic plan, notation and desire to serve librarianship has remained stable.

Dictionary of American Library Biography
This second supplement to DALB, the Dictionary of American Library Biography (1978), adds 77 notable, deceased members of the library and archival communities to the 302 entries in the main volume and the 51 entries in the first supplement (1990). The second supplement includes primarily those figures who died between 1987 and the end of the year 2000, though some 13 entries provide sketches for notable persons whose death dates are somewhat earlier and who were not included in earlier works. Among the entries are a number of African Americans, and nearly one-half of the entries are women. Some 80 contributors from the United States and Canada provided sketches, many based on original source material. This supplement follows the practice and format of the earlier volumes, though it allows presidents of the American Library Association to compete for inclusion with other nominations.
