INSTRUCTIONS TO CANDIDATES

ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS

PRACTICAL CLASSIFICATION

Read study units 1-12 and do the examples as instructed at the end of each study unit.

The units will provide you theoretical understanding of the module. Theoretical understanding is the basis of effective subject organisation because you will be able to apply this knowledge in classifying and assigning verbal subject headings to information sources.

Assignment 1 focuses practical classification and has three sections, each with its own instructions. Classify in detail, that is, as specifically as possible and follow all the number building instructions in DDC. Your answer must display the number building process. This enables the lecturer to see where students are experiencing problems. Leave enough space between answers for comments by your lecturer.
