LCSH and Dewey Correlations

For those catalogers who assign LC subject headings and Dewey classification numbers, Classification Web has an easy-to-use system to determine which subject headings are frequently used with a certain Dewey number or vice versa. Catalogers are encouraged to consult the latest Dewey Decimal Classification data found in the current print versions of the Dewey Decimal Classification or the WebDewey® online service available from OCLC. You may view the OCLC web site at http://www.oclc.org/dewey/versions/default.htm for further information concerning these publications and the online service.
