How a Librarian construct book Number, the Present formate is fulfilling purpose of book number.

Dear Professionals most of libraries are using three alphabet of surname for constructing book number. In current time these three alphabets are not looking adequate for completing the meaning of book number.

Example: Author + Year of Publication + Title of book = Book No. (Part of Call no.)
