DEWEY TASNİF SİSTEMİ ARTIK KULLANILMAMAYA MI BAŞLADI

Kütüphane Kullanıcısı ve bibliyograf olarak
Dewey Tasnif Sistemi ve LC benim için hep soru işaretleri içermiştir.
Tasnif Sistemleri kullanıcıların da içinde
yer aldığı tartışma grupları, kitapseverler, kitapçılar vs. ilgili kesimler
tarafından birlikte geliştirilmiş olsaydı herhalde şimdi başka bir
seviyedeydik. Fakat Dewey’in sistemi ortaya koyduğu yıllarda demek ki insanlık
günümüzün proje, fikir geliştirme yöntemlerinden uzaktı. O dönemin şartlarında
bu mümkün değildi.
(Farklı bir örnek vereceğim, ama yaratıcılık
devreye girince çeşitlenme ortaya çıkıyor. Özellikle erkekler saçlarını çok
uzun yıllar çok az stile göre tıraş
ettirdiler. Günümüzde ise modeller çoğaldı. Neredeyse her kafa ayrı bir stil…)))
DEWEY
TASNİF SİSTEMİ İÇİN “OLUMSUZLUK” İÇEREN ALINTILAR

“Dewey
Decimal System In The 21st Century Library
Some branches are transitioning away from the time-tested
classification system.
By: Patrick Hayes
Is the Dewey Decimal system dying out in public libraries?
The Dewey Decimal Classification system has been used in U.S.
libraries since the 1870s when Melvil Dewey developed it and put his name on
it. But there is a movement afoot in library branches across the country to
move away from the longtime industry standard that many learned as elementary
school students.
The Dewey Decimal system groups books into 10 categories numbered
000 through 900, then divides even further within each subject to reach higher
levels of specificity. Dewey, currently on its 23rd edition, classifies to an
astounding level of depth: 27,000 categories in all.
Some public libraries, however, feel it’s time for a change.
The main complaint leveled against the system is that its focus on
numbers is impersonal and unengaging. In short, the Dewey Decimal does not get
people excited to read.
Rangeview Library District in Adams County, Colo., was the first
library system to move away from Dewey in favor of its WordThink system, which
was inspired by the Book Industry Standards and Communications subject headings
and categories. Others noticed what Rangeview had done and put their own twist
on it.
The Rakow Branch library in Elgin, Ill., tried making the layout
of its library more user-friendly by emulating the way that bookstores group
books, according to a report from the Chicago Tribune. Books in the Rakow
library are categorized by subject as opposed to number, designated by signs
and displayed by their cover.
But, Rakow has not totally abandoned Dewey. Its shelving system
groups books by category like a bookstore but files books within each category
according to the Dewey numbers on their spine.
This “mash-up” organization style inspired the Pauline Haass
Library in Sussex, Wis., to do something similar, according to a report from
the SussexPatch. Operators at Haass felt that a bookstore layout was better for
browsing and got customers excited about reading, but Dewey made searching for specific
books much easier, so they kept elements of both systems.
Dewey is still by far the most used book organization system in
the world. More than 200,000 libraries in 135 countries currently use the
system, according to estimates reported by the Chicago Tribune. Organizations
like the Online Computer Library Center help libraries around the globe start
using the Dewey Decimal system in its print, digital or abridged varieties.
These local-level efforts to transition from Dewey to a bookstore
shelving style are not occurring on a large scale, but they do represent a
significant trend.
So far, those putting Dewey out to pasture are suburban libraries
with manageable numbers of items. For now the Dewey Decimal system is safe, but who knows its fate 10 years
from now.”.

“While
the two may intermingle now, Quinn says the need to organize physical books may
soon become obsolete.
"Digital
space is a lot less linear than physical space," said Quinn "It's all
about finding the information as quickly and as efficiently as we possibly can
and if this gets to the point where it doesn't really work we'll find another
system to apply," Quinn said.
Quinn
says whatever the new system may be, it will build upon the precedents set by
the Dewey Decimal System.” https://wbng.com/2019/12/10/the-dewey-decimal-system-still-used-despite-switch-to-digital/

“Ana
Sonuçlar - DDC kullanılarak sınıflandırılan koleksiyonlar 717 kütüphanede (%
18.9) mevcuttu. 1975-2017 yılları arasında ABD'deki akademik kütüphane
sayısındaki artışa uyum sağlayarak, akademik kütüphanelerde DDC kullanımı bu
zaman dilimi içinde% 56 oranında azalmıştır. Kanıtta sadece DDC bulunan
kütüphane sayısı bildirilmemiştir.
Sonuç
- Geçtiğimiz kırk yıl boyunca ABD akademik kütüphanelerinde DDC kullanımında
LCC lehine önemli bir azalma görülmüştür; ancak DDC'nin akademik
kütüphanelerden kaybolma oranı 1960'lardan bu yana önemli ölçüde yavaşlamıştır.
DDC'nin akademik kütüphanelerden tamamen kaybolacağına dair kesin bir işaret
yoktur.”. https://journals.library.ualberta.ca/eblip/index.php/EBLIP/article/view/29592
