Here's What Librarians Say About Classification Web


"It's wonderful! I can assign call numbers so much faster using this tool and I can use the standard Web browser I already have."
- Heather Hernandez, San Francisco Martime National Historic Park Library

"The cataloging and classification I've used is very good. I especially appreciate the product's using LCSH as indexing terms. Finding correct numbers is easier and faster than in the printed product."
- Sue Kamm, Inglewood Public Library, Inglewood, CA

"Best feature: ability to search all schedules at once. Correlation of subject headings and classification is fabulous."
- Gay Zimmerman, Lamson Library, Plymouth State College, Plymouth, NH

"I especially like the subject headings/classification numbers correlation feature. It's extremely helpful."
- Cathy Zisk, Dallas Museum of Art, Mayer Library, Dallas, TX

- Darra Combs, Special Libraries Association member, Aiken, SC

"Subject correlation feature is superb."

"The speed of access to changes in subject headings and classification is a valuable feature. It is also important for us that it is accessible to multiple users at one time."

- Rhonda Moore, Mills Library, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
