This book is an informative guide to classification practices at the Library of Congress. The guide is divided into two main sections: List A and List B. List A comprises subjects where local differentiation or character pertains to the whole country or a state and is common to all or most geographical subdivisions within it; these subjects are divided by country or state with further subdivision by province, county, city, or other locality. List B comprises subjects or distinctive aspects of subjects peculiar to, or identified in interest with, smaller regions or localities; these subjects are subdivided directly by province, city, or other locality. The guide also includes exceptions to these general rules, such as certain classes of institutions whose development is largely or exclusively identified with cities. This book will be a valuable resource for librarians, researchers, and anyone interested in the organization and classification of knowledge.
