The Dewey Decimal System coordinates materials on the same subject and on related subjects to make items easier to find on the library shelves. This system organises information into 10 broad categories. Each major category is divided into 9 sub-categories. Each sub-category is further divided into 9 specialized topics that can be broken down even further by adding decimals.
