The purpose of faceted classification is to organize and categorize information based on multiple attributes or facets. It allows for more precise and flexible searching, as users can refine their search by selecting specific facets that are relevant to their information needs. Faceted classification also enables more efficient browsing and navigation of large collections of information by providing structured access to the content.
