New Classification Scheme for Chinese Libraries
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The New Classification Scheme for Chinese Libraries is a system of library classification developed by Lai Yung-hsiang since 1956.[1] It is modified from "A System of Book Classification for Chinese Libraries" of Liu Guojun, which is based on the Dewey Decimal System.[2]
The scheme is developed for Chinese books and commonly used in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau.[3][4]
