Dear Madam,


Please call me 09494425022 back

You have subject wise list of books. Then search the class no. in DDC for subjects. You do not need to classify all books but find a DDC no against each Colon no. and change on all books accordingly. If you want to save time. You can go to: http://www.smartlibrarians.in/search/label/DDC 

you will find ready made DDC nos. of several subjects. In case of doubt find the class number by own.

If you want I can also give you the readymade class numbers for Engineering, Computers and Management subjects.

You can contact me at ritesh.tiwari01@gmail.com

 

ddc is best

hi mam,

firstly give broad no of ddc to the books as per their subject, than after completion of it you adjust these books as per DDC no. than u can give a specific no. in software u can put two no also of classification like LC.do it may be it will help you.

Dear Prabha Ji,

1. step: 

First generate report for accession register form your software. collect it in a .xls format.  and remove the all the columns except  ISBN  and accession no. save the file.

Step 2:

and download MARC EDIT TOOL,open your saved file in marc edit tool.

and generated MARC fields for your collection. export your report in viewable formats. it includes DDC number.

if need any technical help call me back > 9494425022

Thanks a lot Mr. Mallikarjuna. Thank yo for your valuable suggestions. I have saved  your mobile Number and will call you as and when I need your help.

Dear Prabha Mdm.

If you got succeeded following the process suggested by Mr. Mallikarjuna and get the right numbers, Please let me inform too, because it may be helpful to all of us.

Dear Ritesh Kumar,

we did it in IITH library,  for 8000 books. (85% accuracy)

data accuracy depends upon MARC availability. 

if need any trial .... install and try it MARCedit

Thank you very much Sir for you kind guidance. I shall try it out.

Dear Mallikarjuna,

I tried your method mentioned herein without any success.  Can you kindly elaborate the procedure for the greater benefit of all.  I am herewith appending an excel file with ten accession nos and corresponding ISBN (13 digit).  Can you send me the DDC nos for the same along with other MARC fields?  I am just keen and curious to see how the system works.  Conversely, is it possible to generate ISBN nos if the author and title are known?

Kindly reply

Thanks and regards

Dear Sarvesh,

Give me remote access to your system, I will show..........

Go to ----> http://classify.oclc.org/classify2/

Enter  an ISBN, OCLC#, UPC, or ISSN (or) Title/Author (or) Subject Heading

Get Accurate DDC Number.

Through this process One peson can do classification 100 books per hour.
