Laboratory Exercise #28
Note: This is a graded lab. You will, of course, work independently, but you may use notes, any printed references and resources, or you may enlist the aid of the teaching assistant or the instructor (although you should not expect definitive answers from this venue...). Collegial support is strictly forbidden.
Note Further: Should you inadvertently "submit" before you are ready, rest assured that I will grade the last submission you make.
Purpose: To afford the opportunity to apply the skills and knowledge of Dewey Decimal Classification.
Procedure: For each of the titles below, construct a single, unique, complete Dewey call number using DDC21. and the light blue Cutter-Sanborn cutter tables. Assume you are doing the work for a large library in which close classification is appropriate. Answers that beg the question ("I would just put this in juvenile fiction arranged alphabetically by author.") earn no points. If you would like to add any commentary to justify your answers, you may do so in the appropriate box below; however, you are not required to submit anything but the call numbers.
