The 'U' Military Science Library Classification Schedule of the Morris Swett Library, USAFAS.

Abstract

In 1929, MSG Morris Swett (in who's memory the USAFAS library has been named since 1968) devised this library classification schedule. His intention was to develop a plan that was broader than the Dewey Decimal and more complete than the Library of Congress classifications. Five subsequent library catalogers have developed the product to what it has become today. Although the subject of artillery is emphasized, it may have application for other military libraries. As such it is designed to support the Third Edition of the Library of Congress 'U' schedule; not to supplant it. (Author)
