3、C (Library of Congress Classification) DDC (Dewey Decimal Classification) NLM (National Library of Medicine Classification),Historical Development,The genesis of the NLM Classification is a Survey Report on the Army Medical Library, published in 1944, which recommended that the Library be reclassifi

4、ed according to a modern scheme, and that the new scheme be a mixed notation (letters and numbers) resembling that of the Library of Congress.,Subsequently a classification committee was formed, chaired by Keyes D. Metcalf and including Mary Louise Marshall who compiled the schedules. Medical specia

5、lists acted as consultants to the committee. Based on the consultants advice, that of the committee and of the NLM cataloging staff, Ms. Marshall produced a preliminary edition of the Librarys Classification, which was issued in 1948.,The preliminary edition was revised by Frank B. Rogers and the fi

6、rst edition of the new classification was published in 1951 as the U.S. Army Medical Library Classification. It firmly established the current structure of the classification and NLMs classification practices. The headings for the individual schedules were given in brief form and together they provi

7、ded an outline of the subjects that constitute the National Library of Medicine Classification .,These headings were interpreted broadly as including the physiological system, the specialty or specialties connected with them, the regions of the body chiefly concerned and subordinate related fields.

8、Within each schedule, division by organ usually has priority. All schedules, including some of their sections, are preceded by a group of form numbers representing publication types. These numbers, ranging generally from 1-39, are employed as mnemonic devices throughout the Classification.,Beginning

9、 with the 2002 edition, the National Library of Medicine Classification is published in electronic form and updated annually. The online environment offers many advantages to users including hyperlinks between class numbers in the index and the schedules, and between terms within the index and direc

10、t links from these to the MeSH record itself under the MeSH Browser.,The online data creation and maintenance system of the Classification gives NLM the ability to update the classification annually in tandem with MeSH. Publication of printed editions ceased with the 5th revised edition, 1999.,Struc

11、ture of the NLM Classification,The National Library of Medicine Classification covers the field of medicine and related sciences, utilizing schedules QS-QZ and W-WZ, permanently excluded from the Library of Congress (LC) Classification schedules. The various schedules of the LC Classification supple

12、ment the NLM Classification for subjects bordering on medicine and for general reference materials. The LC schedules for Human Anatomy (QM), Microbiology (QR) and Medicine (R) are not used at all by the National Library of Medicine since they overlap the NLM Classification.,Relationship to MeSH,The

13、schedules with their special requirements for use with all types and forms of materials preclude strict adherence to the hierarchical arrangement of the MeSH. The schedules maintain their own character in order to provide for material, old as well as new, acquired for the Collection, including dicti

14、onaries, atlases, directories and other items, which are not suitable for the arrangements, found in MeSH. However, an effort was made to make schedule headings, subheadings and class number captions compatible with MeSH terminology,美國國家醫學圖書館分類法(NLM),醫學相關資料或醫學圖書館專用 Notation - 英文字母+阿拉伯數字 列舉式分類法 非醫學類及

Serial publications are separated by form and are assigned classification numbers within several broad categories. T

21、he classification practices outlined below are current conventions. They are provided as explanation, stating NLMs general classification approach using the National Library of Medicines and the Library of Congresss schedules, rather than how to classify instructions.,Basic Rules The classification

22、number assigned to a work is determined by the main focus or subject content of the work. A work dealing with several subjects that fall into different areas of the classification is classed by emphasis, or if emphasis is lacking, by the first subject treated in the work. A work on a particular dise

23、ase is classified with the disease, which in turn is classified with the organ or region chiefly affected, regardless of special emphasis on form of therapy or diagnostic procedure used.,Form Numbers Each schedule, as well as some sections within a schedule (e.g., WO 201-233.1), contains a group of

24、form numbers, generally 1 through 39, that are used to classify material by publication type within the general subject area of the schedule. In general, classification by publication type takes precedence over classification by subject. For example, atlases illustrating the pathology of Liver Diseases are all classed in WI 17 along with atlases on any other subject covered by the WI schedule for Digestive Diseases.,Table G (geographic nota
